Default Intake gasket part # needed - '89 L98

Does anyone have the Felpro part # for an intake manifold gasket for this car? The gaskets should have the rear cooling passages restricted with just a small hole in them, a least that's the way the factory ones were. The only gaskets I've found so far are ones that have this passage open like the 1205, which I don't think are the right ones. Help please.

Steve,
You have email. I assume the package arrived OK. I have used both the 1204 & 1205. Both work. I personally wouldn't use the restrictor plates but your call. I put a receipt in the package that has the Lingenfelter part numbers for the last gaskets that I used with the intake.
Good luck with the install!
John

I don't use the gaskets that restrict the coolant flow at the rear either.
