Intake Torque Specs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**76sierraclassic** · 09-02-2004, 02:42 PM

I'm going to change out my intake gaskets this weekend, but I don't have the torque specs for the intake manifold bolts. Can someone help me out here? I have a stock 76 GMC 350/350/4bbl-qjet.

Also, any tips or tricks you guys could throw my way for this would be appreciated. I've never tackled a job like this before, so I'm just going with the Haynes Manual and a little help from dad.

Thanks,
Mike

also, use a bead of RTV silicone on the front and rear seal instead of the rubber end gaskets.

Thanks for the tip. I was actually wondering about that. I saw that done on a show on TV the other day and wasn't sure if it was a good idea or not.
