Customer Reviews
GM 3.1L / 3.4L V6 Intake Manifold Gasket Set
This item is exactly what the doctor ordered for those of you who
are suffering from the dreaded LIM gasket failure on GM cars equipped
with the 3.1L or 3.4L V6 engine. It typically manifests itself as
milky, antifreeze contaminated oil. The engine may be overheating as
well. This is due to a physical breakdown of the existing OEM plastic
and silicone gasket. It lacks the strength to deal with the expansion
and contraction at the interface between the aluminum cylinder heads,
aluminum intake manifold, and the cast iron engine block. This allows
antifreeze from the cooling passages to leak internally, externally
and/or sometimes both. Either way, this product will fix the problem
permanently. It contains rubber coated steel PermaDry lower intake
manifold gaskets. You can find an excellent how to on GM 3.1L / 3.4L

This particular part number, MS98003T applies to newer 3.4L V6's
from 1999 onwards. For older 3.1L's up to 1998, use MS98004T. Be sure
that you use ONLY one of these two sets. There are other, cheaper sets
that duplicate the original OEM gasket construction materials. They
WILL fail in short order. From about mid 2003 onwards, these improved
gaskets are installed as stock from the factory, replacing the old
plastic ones. One tool that you may want to consider for this job can
be found here on Amazon, Lisle Push Rod Remover 2.8L, 3.1L, 3.4L GM V6.
It allows you to remove the pushrods without removing the rocker arms.
It saves about 2 hours or so on the job. A video demonstration can be
viewed here:

Replacing defective factory parts
Great gasket, replacing defective GM gasket on 3.4L engine, saved
about $25-40 by ordering the same product through Amazon. Gasket set
arrived as I completed the disassembly of the intake manifold.
