Does anyone know the part number for the fel pro intake manifold gasket for a 350? Going to be using a edelbrock 2101 performer.

Thanks

Mine was a 1205(pretty sure) performance gasket for an edelbrock rpm air gap. I highly suggest buying a good gasket and using the copper rtv sealant. You don't want to have to do this more than once!! Don't use the cork end pieces, just run a 1/4" bead on the ends. For best adhesion Put the sealant, (not on the ends), then the gaskets, torque down the manifold. Let it dry overnight. Remove the intake the next day. Check for gasket slippage and clean the gasket sealer off of the ports. Add sealant to ends, then put manifold back on and torque to specs. I did it this way and have had no leaks thusfar. Good luck and I hope this helps a little.

Yep it does. With any luck the manifold will be coming off either thursday or friday. Getting everything outta the way first and I have to wait for the adapter for my carb to arrive. Heres some pics of the manifold.
Cant wait to drop this thing on there.

I don't know if anyone else does this, but when I installed my Edelbrock Performer, I used studs and nuts for everything. That way when you go to change the thermostat or something, there is less risk of stripping out the threads.

Stripping out threads hu? HEHHEHE thats the reason why I am swapping this out. This whole thing started with a points to hei conversion.
