I'd install new intake gaskets...and take a look at the knock sensors for any signs of corrosion.

get the red gaskets if you can....they stick out a little more then the crappy grey ones...when you bolt the manifold down itll give you a better flush fit....no worries about leaking

Red gaskets if you dont already have them, knock sensors and maybe even the wiring harness if you need it bad enough, and you should be set. It's really straight forward.

I re-used the grey ones. No problems here.

You will need the button head allen bolts for the valley cover (10ea) or the bottom of the intake will be resting on them and possibly cause your intake to leak.. Port and polish your throttle body also.....
