BBC intake gasket?

#1 Post by mikeT » Mon Sep 30, 2013 4:40 pm

I have a set of edelbrock performer RPM rectangle port heads on my engine now. It has the bolts between the intake ports like OEM heads. I have a Weiand Team G 4500 intake on it now, but would like to install an edelbrock 4500 victor 454R , It doesnt use the bolts between the intake ports though? is it possible to use the 454R ? If so what gaskets would I use?
THANKS!

I use Fel-Pro. If you measure the intake ports you can get fel-Pro gaskets with the same size port dimensions as the intake ports. I run the same intake on Dart heads with no problems.
