Stop in for a cup of coffee

Those gaskets are okay with the metal bead. They will seal fine but on metal gaskets with beads I like to spray them with HiTack made by permatex also. Just a little extra insurance. Then of course you already know this but seal the corners of the intake manifold with silicone rtv

HiTack for the win! That stuff is my go to!

Is that the copper spray?

No, its a gasket sealant/adhesive. I like to use it too. I do use coppeecoat sometimes too. Usually 2 coats before assembling.

Same here but I deal with farmers and they could care less about what shape there vehicle is in as long as it looks half way presentable.
Put a new windshield in a truck today and there in the cup holder was at least $200 in cash and change all over the floor. Also guns and ammo.
I'm not a theft and they know that but Damn could they at least clean out there truck so I can work on it. :BangHead:


I need to get the spray

Like I said... don't want to screw this up so if a different gasket material (composite) is advisable, then I'll get it
