Should be 4 of the 11183-62010's and 2 of the 11188-62010's (rear full moons, which you do have and is rec'd to change)

I resealed all 6 of these items but I understand people not wanting to HOWEVER the front plugs (well 2 are, 2 are in rear) are just pieces of aluminum. They don't wear out and your going to be RTV'ing and cleaning up old sealant anyway.

I don't get the cam seals being in a kit like this unless you specifically asked for them. It's what I was trying to clarify earlier, they're not cam seals as the cam ends before their placement.

So you already have the valve cover gaskets and spark plug tube seals? Another thing not mentioned is if you want to remove the throttle body to clean well.....well that's a gasket also. Neither sticky I read mentioned this one and I wouldn't reuse the old one there.

I did mine before it was posted but I didn't realize there is an excellent write up in the stickies above if you scroll down towards the beginning of them (sticky needs a sticky!) It gives a complete (except for throttle body gasket) list of everything and the #'s. and a lot of pictures. He goes kinda wild on the sealant but I guess I have before also. Not needed here with rubber gaskets but we used to smear those old cork ones down heavy.

 

Ok, so the 11183-62010's Gunny called the "front plugs" are the metal half moons and I appear to be short two of them since I only received two instead of four. The "rear plugs" are the full circle plugs at the rear of each head and I correctly have two of them. I'll just re-use two of the half moons. I never replace them unless they are damaged anyway.

I'll save the cam seals for another day, perhaps when the engine gets a new timing belt. Way too much additional work if they are not leaking.

 

Yep.
