Edlebrock said to use it around the water ports, I I used Aviation permatex (available at Napa and such)between the head and gasket then RTV around the waterports between the gasket and manifold
I almost forgot, they recommened using high temp RTV instead of the short gaskets front and back, said lay about a 1/4" bead.
