In Reply to: what are the part numbers for the m5 gaskets? posted by Gerald Williams on February 25, 2002 at 22:57:48:

E34 M5 3.6 liter gasket #13-54-1-315-939. The E34 gasket is twice as thick. You`ll need 2, one for each of the rubber M3 gaskets. I paid $3.45 each for the E34 gaskets from Hendrick BMW.

It is strongly recommended that you put the M5 paper gasket between the rubber M3 gasket and the head. Recommended sealants are Hylomar or Aviation Form-a-Gasket, both made by Permatex. Some say not to put sealant between the paper gasket and the head. There are three choices for the paper gasket: E28 M5, 0.02" thick; E34 M5, 0.04" thick; or Dinan, 0.06" thick. The Dinan kit also includes a second 0.06" thick gasket to go between the rubber M3 gasket and the throttle bodies, plus the Aviation Form-a-Gasket and special lock washers. Use Loctite blue on the external torx nuts and bolts.
