Ok, I've always wanted to ask this question, but I've never had the time.

So here goes...

When installing the front and rear intake gaskets on a SB Chrysler (especially when you just installed new Head gaskets), I've always wondered what to do about the head gasket tabs that interfere with the placement of the intake gaskets.

1) Do you cut them off?
2) Or, do you bend them down and then install the front and rear intake gaskets?
3) Or, do you install the front and rear intake gaskets, then bend the tabs down to help hold the ends of the intake gaskets down?

Anybody?

Thanks!

Tim...
