The stock gaskets will work. You can get the felpro replacements from just about any of your local auto parts if your in a hurry.

The stock will work/fit but from what I have read the FAST gaskets are thicker and better suited for the application. When I reinstall my intake I will be ordering the FAST gaskets and at 25 dollars they are probably cheaper than the stock ones to boot.

They are MUCH cheaper than the stock ones. You an buy three sets of FAST gaskets for the price of one set of stock.

I used the FAST gaskets for my 92/92, they are quite a bit thicker than the factory gaskets.

Ordered my FAST gaskets from TR last Wed and they got here before the weekend. For $26 and the extra thickness, you can't go wrong.

i used felpros from the part store. they are the SAME AS THE FAST gaskets. i had the fast gaskets and the felpro's side by side and they are identical. plus with the felpro's you get the 2 peices of foam that go on the bottom of the intake which helps reduce noise.

Local Auto Zone told me they were a dealer only item
Dealer quoted me $88 for the stock gasket set ordered from Speed Inc delivered today for $24 plus shipping

You have to look up your own part numbers before you go to autozone. They have them: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/cat...questid=166406
