Intake Manifold

I had someone replace my intake manifold gaskets and came to ralize afterward that there looks like bolts missing. Are all 'bolt holes' supposed to be used? It looks like about 4 holes are missing bolts, some vertical to intake manifold and some horizontal.

No, most manifolds have extra bolt holes, no big deal.

Just count the bolts that you do have. UNLESS you have vortecs, should have 12, and vortecs will have 8
