Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Some more questions! oil pan and intake questions

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

D,

 Oil pan gasket. I always like to wipe a skim coat of rtv blue on the pan then kind of glue the gasket to the pan with the skim coat. Definitly put a dab on either side of the rear main seal in the spot where it meets the block. I do the same on the front as I install the timing cover. The pan will work fine in your car.

 Intake. Use the supplied rtv black and wipe a skim coat with your finger around all ports ( water and intake) Then install the pan and skim the topside the same. Put the rubber strips on the front and back and dab RTV in the corners same as you did with the oil pan. Install intake and torque bolts from the center out.

 Get yourself a good repair manuel for your car and it will have answers to these questions. Asking on here is fine too

 hope this helps clarify things for ya.
