How many gaskets(total) do i replace?

[Ssvalleyboy]

I just took off my turbo and sent it to limit engineering to be rebuilt. My question is how many gaskets total do i have to account for and replace when i put this thing back on. Will i have a problem aquiring any of these? The more detailed the description the better.

Felpro makes a turbo gasket kit, check with your local parts store...

None. Silicone.

None. Silicone.

But i noticed some old gaskets (falling apart)as i took it off.

There are 2 gaskets
1-oil return line
2-turbo to header, use copper

Yes. Remove them. You can use silicone. I use it on the header to head seal,header to turbo seal,andturbo to oil return line. In 16 years i've used nothing else.

You should only need two gaskets as "turbofrank" noted. I just replaced my stock turbo with a TA49. You will most likely want to use a copper three bolt gasket (as someone already mentioned) to place between the turbo's turbine housing and header and you DEFINITELY want to use a new oil drain line gasket.

summit has bce gaskets made out of cooper which are awesome , one for feed pipe , and one for downpipe , and you do need a oil return gasket which the parts stores should have ,i use high temp on everything but the oil return , uses high tack permatex on that!
