Gen1 head gasket kit

[VipeRob]

I have a brand new in box head gasket kit for Gen1. Ordered from Cometic through Dan at Viper Specialty Performance but never installed before selling the car.

$500 shipped in the Continental US.

If this is a package that pre-dates the valve cover gaskets being included, its a very good deal. If its the version including the VC gaskets... thats a SMOKING deal.

Good point, I should have listed the parts included (no valve cover gaskets):
- 2 exhaust gaskets
- 2 head gaskets
- 1 IAC gasket
- 2 intake gaskets
- 2 throttle body gaskets
- 1 thermostat gasket
- 4 water passage gaskets

Interested in your gasket kit. Have recently acquired a 1993 Viper with 36K miles. It had the intake gaskets replaced just before I purchased it. They didn't know if the Head Gaskets had been replaced. Is there a way to see if this has been done?

I'm not sure if you can see from the outside to determine a new vs. old head gasket. Maybe @Viper Specialty knows?

Look where it protrudes under the exhaust manifold from the bottom or with shield removed. MLS is black/stainless, old composite will be brown, rusty, and crumbly.
