Teflon tape or RTV sealant on the bottom thread of the intake bolts...to prevent any wicking of oil or coolant (which might have access to the bolt hole via casting porosity, etc) to the surface of the intake manifold.

ARP bolts make it sooo much nicer to install manifold. The kit isn't too pricey for the quality.
