| Is there such a thing for the 95's? I was asked to grab one at NAPA AutoParts but they didn't have any listings? | |

| It might be part of an intake manifold gasket set, and not available separately. Otherwise you'd probably have to order one from the dealer or monsterpartsonline.com (discount online GM parts dealer), but either way won't be a quick pickup... | |

Also i'm going to clean / paint the supercharger and i guess my buddy was saying that i should look to see if i could get one incase whatever gaskets do... (leak?) Im still new to this we just don't want to run into any problems this weekend.. | |

If you are taking the S/C off, you'll definitely want a new gasket. The old one will probably tear when you take it apart. | |

| I'm not positive that the kit contains the gasket that you need... but usually an "intake manifold gasket set" contains everything necessary from the intake upwards, which should include the S/C gasket if the application is correct. | |

| The intake kit from Fel-Pro only has the LIM gasket and some other small stuff. It does not include the SC gasket, that's separate. I would specifically ask when calling for gasket kits, what's included and more importantly what's not included. | |

| I just caught the GM dealership in town before 5 and they said they had one in stock i can pick it up tomorrow morning... they said they ONLY found the base gasket.... lucky me! I definitely didn't want this to be postponed..... I'm also getting all the stuff in my signature done this weekend minus the rims... a little pre-emptive but i'm very exited about it | |

| Don't forget the SC gasket O-Rings in case they are not sold with the gasket. | |
