Lower intake gasket ?

[SVO-SMITTY]

Guys, I got another question. Where can I buy the lower intake gasket? Oh yeah, let me add that I have gone to a few auto stores including the Ford dealer and the gasket I keep seeing is a gasket that has all oval ports. The original gasket had oval and D ports.

Thanks.

Intake gasket

Smitty,

I've found the intake to head gasket at Ford. I have also heard that these "paper" gaskets have a tendency to get vaccuum leaks. I've heard, that the felpro gasket is better. It is a metal gasket with a blue color. I've found this at an Auto Zone parts store. I haven't tried either one yet (have both, just haven't got the motor together yet), and never had a problem with a stock one either.

Intake gasket

Smitty,

I just looked at my intake gaskets:

Ford d port part #E59Z-9439-A - right gasket

The felpro gasket is an oval port - not sure why - I might have purchased this kit for all the other gaskets - part #MS 90266-1

Thanks. I was just wondering if you could use the oval port gasket when you need the D port.

i like to get the fel pro gasket kit. there about $12.99, and it's all the gaskets for the intake, throttle body, and idel bypass valve.

I am pretty sure I used the felpro oval port gasket on my engine when I put it together...

I know I did check the fit of the gasket, and I dont remember it interfering with the port. My ports weren't opend up , but I did polish them, for a little better flow.

I dont think it will cause a problem...

D-Port intake gasket

The Correct style D-Port lower intake to head gasket can be bought from Napa. Napa part # MS-15582-W. I picked one up today for just over $8.00. It comes with the gasket for the 85-86 upper to lower gasket. I layed the D-Port gasket over the Ford original i have and it is a perfect match. Hope this helps.
