Installing Intake Manifold Gasket

Hey everyone,

I am about ready to install my intake manifold and valve covers. The intake is iron so I bought rubber Felpro gaskets that have a bead of sealant on them. After reading all of the posts I can't figure out what I need to do regarding high temp RTV sealent. I know not to use the front and rear rubber inserts and to use a 1/4 inch bead instead and also to put a glob in the four corners but do I put any on the side of the gasket that touches the head to hold it in place? Do I cover the whole surface? What about with the valve covers, I got Felpro for them too. Do I use RTV as well? thx
