gasket #s

94 sc

what is the difference in head gasket sets from felpro. I have a 94 sc and was sent the gasket set #hs 9642 pt which i believe is for 89-93 by doing some searching i found that 94-95 is hs 9642 pt1. what exactly does the # 1 stand for? thanks
 
The head gaskets in both kits are the same, 9642-1's. The difference in the kits is in the valve cover/timing cover kits.

Valve cover sets:
89-93 VS50070R
94/95 VS50441R

Timing sets:
89-93 TCS45878
94/95 TCS45951

What the difference is between them, I do not know, since our network is on the fritz and I can't see the exploded views. :mad:

For sure there is some kind of difference in the head sets, the 94/95's use the PT1's, and 89-93 use the regular PT's.
 
Looks as though the valve cover gaskets and timing cover sets are different, so that is the difference in the part numbers for the head sets, even though the actual head gaskets themselves are the same. Scounged up some photos just now.
Valve cover sets first, then the timing cover sets, 89-93 first, then 94/95.

I like the first Valve Cover Gaskets And the second timing cover set. though the second set has the o-rings that fit in the oil pump when it bolts to the timing cover, they have a slightly wrong dimension.

The water pump gasket is a nice design, as are the valve cover gasket being their permatorque line.
