Intake gaskets
Replacing the gaskets on my intake tonight. "Sealer" I bought says "never hardens". Does this mean I don't have to leave the truck sitting over night while the sealer cures? Seems like an obvious answer, but I really don't want to do this twice.

Re: Intake gaskets
What kind of sealant is it?
Right Stuff works great for intake end seals and a light film around the water ports.

Re: Intake gaskets
When I was putting the 302 together this summer, I came across this video. It's exactly what I followed. No sealer, nothing but a little spray glue to hold things in place during assembly. So far I'm happy

Re: Intake gaskets
Wish my PO had watched that video. He used nothing but silicone. Two of the coolant passages looked like the arteries of a man who had eaten nothing but deep fried foods for his entire life. They were seriously close to 50% blocked.
