Re: Adopting a Suburban Carryall, The Seahorse
Great...thanks, Jeff. A true friend! Hah!
I learned a valuable lesson yesterday: trust the wisdom of those that came before you. The first book I ever read on rebuilding small block chevys recommended that the rubber end gaskets for the intake manifolds suck. They squeeze and slip and slide out of place, so instead just recommend to use a fat bead of black rtv. And I always followed that...until now. I thought shoot, the factory used them, so can I! Sure enough they started sliping and sliding on me. So I had to pull the intake and rip them out. Grrr. Hopefully it still seals nicely. Lesson learned.
