Good morning all. This is my first post to the forum. I need a little help. I have a 01 tahoe with the 4.8 motor. I have a bad head gasket, and I am putting together my parts list to do the job in a couple weeks. It will be parked till then, so no worries. The problem is that there are apparently two felpro gasket kits available, and I can't figure out which one I need. One is Part Number: HS9292PT listed as a positive type valve stem seal, and the other is Part Number: HS9292PT-1 listed as top-hat design valve stem seal. I looked on the web to view vin code/ engine code but no luck. Called Chevy dealer and they said to pull it apart first, then order. Really don't want to leave the motor open for that long. Any pointers or assistance is greatly appreciated. vin # 1gnec13V01j272464.

Thanks!! T
