Intake manifold gasket Help
I want a quality intake manifold gasket for my '86 with aluminum heads. Have always used Felpro with blue silicon beads on other rebuilds, but am having problem finding gasket with rear water passage block-off plates. What have you used??? What gives best seal?
Thanks :confused:

Re: Intake manifold gasket Help (Five Window)
I have the 86 with alloy heads and I got the fel pro kit for the Intake and up gaskets.I got the kit from Car Quest or maybe advance auto..sorry cant rem which but was one of them.Came with everyt single gasket needed.Worked great for many years.It had the rear water passages blocked off but a small hole is drilled in it.Your 86 should have rear water jackets in the back of the intake so you wont need to block them off completely.Unless you have another type TPI intake that doesnt have the rear water jackets.
