As I was driving my 2002 Tahoe 5, I noticed the problem. To restore a 3 Chevy, it is as simple as two mid-sized head bolts, five short bolts, and eight long bolts. It was a job well done.
There will be a 2nd in the list.
As far as the 5 go, I am confident they will work on it. The set is for a three-engine. If you wish to replace both heads, two sets are required.
Your inquiry is appreciated. A picture of the ES72173 on a 2005 Chevy Silverado 4 is NOT included in Fel Pro. The 8L letter. An image from Fel Pro shows the ES72220 Head bolt set that can be used for ES72220 is for 1 head, so you will need to order 2 sets of the head bolts to do the two

Be sure you understand that there is a design 1 and a design 2. If you remove the old bolts, make sure they are in good condition. This set of three bolts is a design 1 if it has three different bolt sizes. The 11mm bolts must all be the same size, so design two is the building. Taking for granted all engines were the same, I made that mistake when switching engines. By the way, order an angle gauge if you don't have In order to install correctly, you must have one.
When I removed my 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 6's cylinder heads for some repair work, I bought these to replace the worn out ones. No L. All the books I have read on auto repair strongly recommend (most say that it is required) the use of new bolts and the not reusing the old ones. I am not sure why they need replacing, but I did it anyway. Please take note As the set comes with only enough bolts for a single head, it is essential to buy two sets if you plan to work on both cylinder heads. I made the mistake of not paying attention to the picture and therefore bought two sets of bolts.
On one head, it failed to withstand 22 ft lbs of pressure. I had to cut it out for an hour. I had to purchase another set of heads after removing the old ones. The other head was installed and a new one was broken off on the second 90 degree pass. It took another hour to get It is a good idea to lubricate the tip with some oil before installing these so you can get them The ARP’s are the ones I’m going with.
Once I started it up, the head began leaking, so I had to pull it from the machine It worked great when I put these bolts in and torqued them to specs. I learned a valuable lesson.
An 11-ft lb bolt gave way and broke in 10 ftlbs, fl- Buy OEM or ARP instead. Pro has gone downhill no longer recommended.
If I were selling a bolt SET, I'd be selling them for the entire engine. However, this is only for one side, as I reused the old bolts on that side. I should not have bought them but I did. It would've been better for me to listen to the denmah from the beginning. I am highly.
I'm sitting in my truck with one head until they show up.
These head bolts are very nice.
