Few questions about my car. (Intake ,MAT , Heater hose)

First off. I just put a new intake on and forgot to put rtv on the threads of the intake bolts can i take one out one at a time and put them back in with out worrying about the gasket?

second I am relocating MAT and notices the LT1 has a differant connector can i just get a LT1 connector and cut the old L98 wire connecter and put the LT1 on there? or will i have to do soemhtign else

Can i relocate my heater valve somewhere else like along the firewall or will that interupt the movemtn of coolent?

I don't see why not, for any of your questions. Altho personally I'd ditch that heater valve!

My '86 is fine without one (started in '87)...
