I've never heard of oiling the intake gaskets to help remove them ![confused confused](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/confused.gif) I use a aviation gasket sealer on them to hold them in place and seal the gaskets to make sure they don't allow oil to be sucked into the intake ports between the gaskets, heads and intake manifold or allow the gaskets to weep oil through them into the ports also. That, oil leaking through the gaskets, is another reason I call them "Hemiroid "motors ![grin grin](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/grin.gif)

Hemi-itis : I like the crank scrapper. Do you use this in place of a windage tray? Did you make it yourself or did you order it from someone?
