Hey guys Im going to start ordering parts for my old B6000 has low compression, and is difficult to start. I checked a lot of part #s on messicks piston rings, head gasket and find I can get them. Question is what gaskets to I need. Im just re ringing it.
B6000 engine rebuild.

Hi, I too am doing some repair work on a great B6000. I noticed you didn't get any replys to your questions back in 2013. I think the founders of this site have left the building! (service Dept Vic and Mr K.) I have found that Coleman Equipment out of Kansas is cheaper and as nice as Messick's. Messick's probably has more stock. But if you can wait???? Just thought I'd say hey and if you have any pointers on the B6000 I'd love to hear them. I'm removing a head maybe replacing it (Belch Plug leaking water on back of head) Well I hope to hear back from you! djmc35

I've bought a ton of Kubota parts and I too get them from Coleman Equipment, price is better and they've done a great job at getting me the right parts quickly.

On to your question, are you asking what other gaskets will you need?
There are quite a few and O-rings and seals too.

Kumar Bros USA normally would be who I would direct them too but they don't have a set for that tractor.

Wow, those are pretty reasonably priced for 3cyl overhaul kits. Maybe I should buy one now for my '13 L3200DT and shelve it until it's 20 years old and needs it. I'll bet it would save me money rather than what it will cost 20 years from now!Kumar Bros USA normally would be who I would direct them too but they don't have a set for that tractor.

Above says its a ZL600 engine
Kumar can create a kit for you if they do not list it.
That will certainly help out the OP's B6000, but I guess mine is this one:
