Does it come with intake gaskets? Does it come with intake bolts? If not, can I use all the stock ones on the Fastburn heads? Thanks.

It does not come with gaskets or bolts. But it does require special bolts that you can get from the dealer.

Dont use their bolts They just give you a set of ARP bolts to use I have arp 12 point and they work fine as far as gasket goes they do not come with them you can use a set off a 96 gm truck with 350 or get the felpro one I would use the felpro. One other thing if you are not going to runn egr you will need to block off the egr holes you can buy these from TPIS or make your own.

ok if you get the bolts from scoggin they have actualy been made for the vortec heads and the manifold they have diffrent heads if i remimber correctly. I remimber being in there when the first prototype came in. They actualy fit nicer. but it is up to you. Yes they are from ARP but they are specialy made for the vortec heads.

I used the bolts from SDPC, you can't reuse your old ones and the new ones are cheap, so why not get them?
