Intake Gaskets
I am sure that this has bee beaten to death but for the life of me I can't seem to find any info.
351W, GTP-40 heads, Edelbrock intake.
What is the correct intake gasket. Mine seem to keep leaking if I hit it hard at all.
Hit it fairly hard and then on deceleration exhaust started crackeling and did not want to idle.
If I spray starting fluid on the sides of the intake the rpm's raise so I know that it is leaking. More around 7 & 8 but a bit around 2 & 3 also.
Side intake gaskets only, front and rear are holding up. Have had two sets of FelPro on it with the same issue. Torque was correct and checked after a couple of heat cycles.
I am starting to think that maybe the angle between the intake and the heads are not correct.
Any ideas?
