for those of you who are running needswings mani gaskets are yall using sto oem gaskets or the cork gaskets. I tried to install nw cork gaskets when i turned car on it was ideling like at 3k rpm. maybe i installed them wrong

 

did u two step torque to 120 in/lbs per website?
we just last week put some on
they'll freak u out at first

 

Did you miss the cork O's that go under the outside bolts?

one gasket needs to be flipped to properly line up the mount holes. recheck the gaskets

 

I spray contact cement over the side of gasket that will mount towards the removed intake manifold. After a couple of minutes of tack drying time,I elign the gasket to the intake manifold,then firmly press down the gasket. After several hours of final drying time or next day,I bolt them to the block. Only after smearing anti-seize onto the manifolds bolt's threads. For the next 5 days of driving the car,I recheck the torque after the engine has had all night to cool down. I'm running a 185 pulley and haven't had a gasket failure yet. Works for me anyway.

O woww actually i didnt even realized the gaskets came with O gaskets also i didnt even put those on also instead of using the 3m i got sm gasket sealer stuff it kinda like a thick paste. i guess thats why its good to follow directions huh
