hey guys, so I'm getting ready to take off the intake manifold gasket on my SR and was wondering other then the manifold gasket is there anything else I need to replace since i'm taking off the intake manifold??? And another thing I was wondering was which brand of gasket should I get or does it really matter......thanks guys i appreciate all the help

redoing the throttle body gasket wont hurt also will help with less vac leaks. i would redo all hoses, bet they're old and hard. make sure to use copper-spray-a-gasket made by permatex. dont use rtv! goodluck!

also size down your signature pic. too big yo!

I have one on my KA-T setup, and I think Didderson? Or one of his friends run it on their SR.

It seals nicely, no complaints, it was pretty cheap too.
