I would use the Felpro intake gaskets that are black fiber with the blue borders around the ports (might be printoseal?) & spray them with Permatex "high tack" the red stuff in the spray can part # MA99 iirc. I would not use the front/rear supplied gaskets & use a wide/even carefully placed swath of silicone instead on front/rear surfaces surgically cleaned with brake kleen or similar then after torquing the intake let it set up overnight. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
