It includes a head gasket set, head bolts, a full lifter set, and the updated solenoid plate required for warranty compliance.

## Description

Please remove the phrase "new lifter trays" This ASIN has never contained lifter trays. This is due to an improper desertcart page merge.

Review: THIS KIT PLUS A NEW VALVE LIFTER WORKED WONDERS - THIS KIT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE GASKETS AND LIFTERS. I ALSO PURCHASED A NEW VALLEY PAN/VALVE LIFTER. THE TRUCK (YUKON XL) RUNS LIKE NEW AGAIN. ONE RECOMMENDATION, BUY LIFTER TRAYS/GUIDES IN ADDITION TO EVERYTHING ELSE. I DIDN'T DO SO AND SPENT SEVERAL HOURS CHASING DOWN THE LIFTER GUIDES AFTER DISCOVERING THAT ONE OF MINE WAS BROKEN. AFTER ALL, THEY ARE $10-$15 PARTS (THOUGH I DECIDED TO REPLACE ALL FOUR) AND WELL WORTH THE PIECE OF MIND.
Review: Don't waste your money! Buy factory GM! - Do yourself a favor and don't try to save a few bucks on this kit vs factory GM stuff. Lifters are way too noisy. Going to drive it a few more days and if noise goes away. Total waste of my time and money especially if I end up buying factory lifters and doing it over again. (Yes, I did put a factory oil manifold and cam in it.) Been a service tech for 20 and I knew better than to buy this junk. Just wanted to save a few extra dollars. Exhaust manifold gaskets were the cheap non MLS (multilayer steel) that blow out easily. Through those in the trash. Valve cover gaskets wouldn't come close to staying put in valve covers. Bought factory exhaust gaskets and valve cover gaskets. Truck has ran for 45 mins and I've put a few miles on it. Sounds like junk. Update, Put in GM lifters and no more rattle noise. Do not buy this product unless you like noise.
