[QUOTE="03DSGGT, post: 1073318, member: 14880"] I did the intake/cam swap on my buddies 96. I used PI gaskets too. When I sealed the corner of the water jacket in the head, I built it up so it was above the gasket surface and let it dry. Then I took a razor blade and shaved it flush with the gasket surface. Then When I put the intake on, I put a dab of fresh sealant on the dry stuff and put the intake on while it was wet. My theory was that If I just globbed it in the water jacket and put the intake on, the sealer could push down into the coolant passage and fall away from the gasket surface causing leaks. By letting the first round of sealer dry and cutting it flush, it almost makes it like its part of the head, then the small dab that you put on right before putting the intake on will seal between the dry sealer and gasket....hope this didnt confuse you too much lol [/QUOTE]
