Swapping in RPM air gap on my trickflows, I have new 1256 gaskets, recomends 1205....

Well as the title says, is it OK to run the 1256 on the intake? The intake calls out the 1205s which are .1" taller openings and .05" wider. Does this make any difference since the ports on the intake are smaller than both anyways???

My gut says it should be just fine, just want to check with you guys. Thanks.

Right: as long as it SEALS to both the heads and intake (remember, it has to be clamped on both sides all at the same place), and doesn't hang over into the ports, it's fine.

I think I follow. I will moch them up in the intake and check and then on the heads and check.

I know this is no big deal, but my first time.... Makes me want to learn as much as possible.

Thanks again.

Should be done tomorrow afternoon
