You might have to o-ring if you are blowing intake gaskets.......Sorry I know thats not the answer you were looking for.

I agree with George, I have two intakes that have a "O-Ring" style sealing system.
The NASH/Warrior intake modded for EFI being one of them.

A very good shop, machined the O-ring groves in the intakes. The O-rings I use are a "rubber" type material and .043" in diameter. I use a .060" wide groove .025" deep. Never has a leak using that system. Chris Piper is aware of the sealing system too.

My engine guy told me that he uses the fiber gasket from Mcmaster Carr. I bought that material and it is a green material and that's what the blower setup uses.

I have a Hogan sheet metal intake, so I am not sure if it is wide enough between port's to o-ring the intake. Thanks Rusty

I'll ask Roger what he uses with his combo?
