Default Is an intake manifold gasket really $100?!?
I just realized I never bought a gasket for my Edelbrock manifold. So I looked up part # 17113557 specified in the instructions and that thing is $100 retail and $84 my cost. Is that right?

No, use a Felpro MS92438, should cost you less than $30.

Thanx. That seems much more sane.

I will look for the p/n. I believe they are Victor gaskets and I have never had a problem. I mean all it is is 8 orange o-rings. Makes you not be a cheap *** and swap the gaskets whenever you do a head swap or intake swap.
