Working on the boat now.....do I only use silicone on the ends of the intake manifold where there is no gasket or around the ports? My fel pro gasket has some blue stuff around the ports....


THANKS!

Don't know what engine you have, but fel pro blue seals it-self
If a gmc, then only the end (black) rubber gaskets need a tab, where they meet the heads.

I always throw the rubber things away and use a meaty bead of RTV on chevy V6/V8
