Im hunting an upper intake gasket set....I had to pull my intake off and when I was done I ran to Hi-LO,Autozone, Advanced,ext and no luck..... so it looking like the G.M dealership in the morning.

So where are you guys going for mis parts like this when you need them in a hurry?

The GM dealship should have them. They will need your VIN # to seach for it. They might ask if its a Z engine and tell them yes. I went through the same bull. It really sucks when you talk to a parts guy that says "I have never even heard of a Syclone or Typhoon." If you hear that get ready for a long day.

I pretty ,much stock a spare truck odds are with these trucks if you need it once you will need it again so always buy 2

Be sure to check here for part numbers before you go the the "stealership" if you go that route. Having the right part number in hand can save a lot of headaches sometimes...

In MI car quest stocks them. They pretty good with looking things up and cross checking. The even old school it and look in the catalog to match the parts. Good luck.

I just bought two of these this week. Nobody had them and one of the NAPA stores here said they don't carry them anymore.

The GM dealers can order them with the OE number.

I managed to have a mom and pop NAPA 10 miles away over night two from Seattle.

I couldn't find one when I needed it so I ended up making my own.
