No more intake manifold gasket problems after 10,000 miles.

Oh I hope that isn't the issue with my leaks... the initial leak was out of the front and only after driving it home 12 hours the day I bought it. Changed things and it leaks out the front and back. Changed again and just the rear leaks. I just think I didn't get the "Right Stuff" on thick enough. Prior to this the last intake manifold I had done was when I was in High School and changed the intake on my brother 76 chevy blazer. I don't remember it leaking, so I must have done something right.
