Gasket swap at reunion?

[roberto2000]

every time I pull the valve cover I need to take off the upper inline intake
Every gasket set I get I end up with an extra "square intake" gasket
any one have the opposite setup and have a bunch of inline gaskets they want to trade for my "square" ones

[Henson]

You don't need a gasket between the upper and lower intakes! Just wipe a bead of RTV on the surface. Good to Go. There is no water. No Problem. I have been doing this for many years. Be sure to stay a 1/4" away from the runners or just very thin coat there. This makes it so there is no squartage in the runners.

Yep got a few hanging on the wall their yours.

[Erics SVO]

Hmmm, last Felpro kit I got had both.

[roberto2000]

Eric, exactly! I keep getting both and now have a bunch of ones I dont need
I figure someone can use them, and in return has the ones I need

[Erics SVO]

Ooops sorry, I read it a bit wrong. Pain med kicked in.

[Gator]

Ill dig though mine Rob, they are yours if i got any.

However, im with Henson. RTV is my friend.

[roberto2000]

I guess I can go with the rtv....I always drive mine after working on it and figured it would not be cured in time...guess I could wait a bit

[Henson]

What?
Starter up, let it rip!

Just a thin coat with your finger.
Good to go. You worry too much! lol.

You're involved with production cars too much. You should see the construction of the race cars I see!

Viva La North!

[roberto2000]

your right!!.... I guess I see to many production cars being built
I forgot !!!.............VIVA LA NORTH!!

btw, swapping out the throttle body studs with the bolts from later 2.3s will let you pop the cover off without pulling the intake off; just the TB. makes life a whole lot easier.

Rob,

I think I have a bunch I'll swap with you.
