How do you seal your small block intake?

One of the important things you need to do if you use RTV is clean and wash the surface with brake cleaner or CRC. RTV doesn't stick to anything that has oil residue on it. I always clean the hell out of the mating surfaces then spay them with brake cleaner and scrub real good with rag soaked in RTV. If the metal surfaces are bone dry the RTV will stick real good. If let the RTV "set up" a little it will help retain it volume/height before you ease the intake onto the engine. It's better to use too much RTV than not enough.
