I am cleaning up my engine (M35, REO Gold Comet) and every thing i take off such as the air compressor, carborator, and exaust manifold, has ratty gaskets. i was curious as to where i may obtain a gasket set if one exists or if i have to make my own and any part numbers one might know (i had heard something about NAPA having a kit but i have not found it. any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What part of Illinois are you from?
Nice truck, not too many gassers left.
JT will do you right on the gasket set BTW...

I don't have the part numbers at hand but lots of the gaskets can be had from NAPA. I had the best luck making my own oil pan and valve cover gaskets from silicone sheet. Cheapest price were from "rubberman" on ebay.

Well, I left NAPA today and they were clueless!. NO REO PARTS!

It is best to go to NAPA with the part numbers in-hand. I'll post tomorrow with the numbers.

I had the part number from a post in 05 or 06. They said it's obsolete and don't carry it anymore.

I haven't bought reo gaskets from NAPA for a few years. Used gaskets show up on ebay once in awhile but the cork gaskets are usually garbage. Not a big deal; just make your own from silicone sheet.
I have had good luck getting oddball gaskets from Olson's Gaskets. Olson's Gaskets
I have heard good things about Best Gasket but have no experience with them. Vintage Automotive Gaskets - Head Gaskets and Rear Main Seal Gaskets - Best Gasket
