I need to replace the gasket for my intake in order to stop a serious leak in the 1/2 cyls.

I know I need to buy the gasket + the exhaust gasket.

What I don't know is where do I find the gasket that goes between the intake & exhaust manifold where they touch under the carb?

Also - I saw something about intake alignment rings? What are those & do I need these? Can't I just slap on the new gasket with some sealer and torque it down?

Get Fel-Pro #MS 9193 B. That's a complete intake/exhaust manifold set, and included the gasket for the heat riser. The intake/exhaust gasket is 3 peices, 2 end peices and a center peice. As far as the port rings go, they're not 100% necessary, but they do make aligning the intake to the head alot easier. Unless they've been removed from your engine, you don't ned to replace them. just re-use the originals. I personally use Permatex High Tack part #80062 for the intake gaskets.

Thanks Bill - I love High Tack for just about any seal.

I have not pulled the intake yet as I still want to drive the truck here & there. I plan to pull them next month when I settle in for the winter & wasn't sure what I needed to buy to get the job done.

I finally got around to installing the new gasket & bolts. I used a copious amount of high temp muffler gasket sealer & the truck runs like new!

I'm tickled to have all 6 cyls pulling for me now!
