replacing intake gaskets?

JUST SOME HELPFULL INSITE,IF HAVING TO REPLACE YOUR LOWER INTAKE GASKETS (if you own a pontiac it will happen) DONT BUY THE GASKETS FROM A PARTS STORE FOR THEY ARE STILL THE CRAPPY PLASTIC ONES. GO TO A GM DEALERSHIP AND GET THE NEW UPDATED GASKETS WHICH ARE MADE FROM ALIMINUM, TRUST ME I JUST REPLACED MY LOWER AND UPPER INTAKE GASKETS AND THE NEW UPDATED GASKETS ARE 100% BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL CRAP PLASTIC ONES. COST ALITTLE MORE BUT WELL WORTH IT. YOU CAN ALSO ORDER THESE GASKETS FROM ZZPERFORMANCE.COM ALSO BUY A NEW COOLANT ELBOW FOR 99.9% CHANCE IT WILL GET BROKE UPPON REMOVAL OF LOWER INTAKE.

You can buy Fel-Pro from O Reilly auto parts. They have the Problem solver gasket for $70 ? but its a metal gasket set with rubber around the ports, Ive used fel pro for years and never had a problem with there high quality gaskets. But dont get the basic fel pro replacement u gotta buy the problem solver ones.
