wanna be cheap? go get some felpro gaskets from your local parts store and 3 ft of 5/8s" heater hose. and of course silicone, 40 dollars :dunno:

Exactly, cut the line where it comes out of the nipple and in the rear, worked fine for me for year's.

u did the heaterhose method too :p, dont see why people say not to use it, coolant flows from the radiator to the motor with heater hose, why cant it go elsewhere :idiot2:

Yep, but it does get a little squished up against the block, never caused an issue though.

and if u go with the heater hose, be sure u get some clamps on it. i was helping a kid do it one time and he tried putting the manifold on without clamping the heater hose... :idiot2:

well ok.. yeah theirs also a sticker in there that i just found today since i took the newspaper out of the inside of the box. it says dorman manifold company blah blah. so yeah voidfinger was correct. he said that their is intergrated gaskets on on ports if its a dorman intake, so does this eliminate the use of gaskets?

so i would just have to get some heater hose and silicone and go at it??
