318 edelbrock intake install ( round two)

I used black as 318willrun has said, it’s oil resistant and better at the China walls where oil can reach it. Yes...get it as clean as possible and line the valley with rags to catch anything that might fall. You’ll be happy you did. You can bend a razor blade at a 45* angle which gives you a little hande to use as you scrape the old rtv off.
