Good luck with your intake gaskets....
Yep.

I'll add to that... "you can trust a Marine with your gaskets." lol.

I like the fel-pros from that set, they're steel which obviously means strong and not deformable, and they put a black rubber over the steel at the appropriate places. Plus they have little locator nubs that mate with those tiny holes in the head, for location purposes. I think they're in there to stay.

Truck runs better than it ever did. I probably had a leaking intake gasket from day 1 of the re-head job and it got progressively worse.

No more !!

Thanks for your thoughts.
