I'm installing a new Edelbrock intake on my rebuilt 403 later today. What is
the best
product to glue (attach ) the patterson gaskets to the heads so they won't
slip.
Should I glue just the bottoms or both sides? Thanks for the help.

I use Gasketcinch to glue them to the head and then a very, very thin bead
(1/16") of red or blue silicone on the manifold to gasket surface. Yeh, I
know its a bit of an overkill but better safe than sorry. Make sure you get
silicone good coverage in the corners where the heads, block and manifold
meet.

Thanks

remember, if you have had any machining done on the heads, (etal) you will
need to have the manifold machined to change the angle of the mating
surface.....
