for many, many years now, i have used black RTV to seal the china walls on small blocks instead of using gaskets. i also remove the locating pins, as they tend to hold the intake proud at times. if it were me, i would remove the intake and do away with the china wall gaskets and locating pins. just my opinion and personal life experiences. your mileage will vary.

If you insist on using the gasket, about the only way I've gotten it to work is to glue it to the block.

Did you put a dob of adhesive silicone, not gasket maker silicone , in each corner to seal them up (head to intake manifold) ? If so your good, if not I would and do

But two things, make sure you get a fresh tube and you had better make sure it is exactly where you want it before you set it in place, you'll not be able to adjust the position.

most likely heads, block or intake was milled (less clearance) use Ultra gray permetex rtv only
all parts are sold as is, all parts are considered used no warranties or returns paypal/check/money order, shipping is from zip 02891, buyer pays paypal fees 24% IRS 1099A plus 3% of part price, check/money order preferred site is not monitored 24/7 there might be a delay in response
