1968 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback (old school build with a new school feel)
That is kinda funny, but not when it happens to you.
I picked up the intake manifold gasket today. They had the metal one, so I coated it with the "gasket tact" around the ports, put about 3/8" a bead of black silicone, and a small amount of RTV around the ports on the manifold. I then waited a about 10 minutes to get the bead tacky, then plopped on the intake manifold. It is all tightened down and gonna sit overnight to dry the RTV in place. My valve cover gaskets will be at the parts store in the AM, so I will put them on after work and fire it up.
