<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Having a bit of trouble there are ya? Normal decking to take out a small warp usually don't require the intake to be modified.
I wouldn't even think about using a metal gasket between the head and the intake.. What you need are the normal gaskets.
Hear this! Putting pooky on an intake gasket is simply looking for trouble.. Don't do it. Gaskets work fine as sold and need no extra help. If a gasket needs help the instructions will tell you just where to put the sticky stuff.
When putting an entire engine together I only use pooky on SOME rear main seals. Nowhere else!
I use pooky on pan and valve cover gaskets. I place a small amount on the cleaned surface of the pan and cover and then place the gasket in place with bolts in the holes and allow to setup...then I pull the bolts out of the holes and the gasket will stay in place while I install..
Most v type intakes seem to fit poorly at first blush. As the bolts are tightned the intake is pulled downward into place and the fit is corrected by this pulling.
