Sweating intake manifold gasket.

A lot of help here! Thank you everyone.
I'll do everything again and follow directions.
The block has not been decked and the heads and intake manifold are almost new--I've sealed this system before I did the rebuild, so I'm fairly sure its not that. :/
I think I must have rushed the process in excitement to finish the build...

Most likely I screwed up the torque sequence as well as I cant access the middle bolts with my torque wrench.

Is it safe to re-use gaskets that look wet? I have the day off kinda want to dive into this now...


Before you take it apart, just give a good Re-tightening of the bolts.

As long as you went inside out and side to side, there is no magic torque “sequence”.
