[burnin oil]

A little late but on intakes I just use the permatex spray gasket stuff on the head and gasket. Let it tack then drop her in place. Once set it won't slide and comes off real easy if need be. As others said goop the crap out of the block ends and a dab where the gasket meats the block end. Should have no problems. I have never torqued an intake manifold. Rods, mains, and head bolts yes, but everything else just gets a good and tight.
