intake sealing question?

When usuing the felpro 1200's did you guys cut the stock intake gasket so that it could still be used to keep oil off the bottom side of the intake???

Me too, I just replaced my stock gasket (after 3 uses) with a felpro gasket and it covers the valley pan as well. If you want I will get the number of the gasket for you, Let me know.

Yes, if use the Felpro 1200's you need to use the stock metal pan as a baffle or the PCV will suck oil like mad. You can baffle the PVC on the bottom of the intake also (weld a baffle there)
