Intake manifold end seals?
I am just about to put the intake back on the block. I bought Fel-Pro intake gaskets #1204.
They come with two pieces that look like compacted cork board. For the front and rear edges of the intake manifold.
Does anybody use These??? I have never seen them before, I have always used RTV sealant.
Should I use these or stick with the RTV???
