I'd use the Fel-pro blue gaskets. Never had an issue with them. I have no experience with the steel ones.
Now's the time for a cool old school aluminum intake. What carburetor are you using?
I duplicate the correct throw and kick down on junkyard pulls.View attachment 1715685973
Ever install a Ford FE factory intake?Don’t use the cork end gaskets. Use a bead of silicone and that will make your life much better.
Heavy cast pig iron intakes SUCK. A 460 Ford may be the most offensive intake out there.

Yup, those are the worst IMO.Ever install a Ford FE factory intake?
I wouldn't use those metal ones with the tiny pinhole for the exhaust crossover. The passageway will plug up in no time. If you get the open ones, those are fine with a good sealer like HiTack or CopperCoat. I like the blue teflon ones by Felpro, except on a resto because of the look and that they won't hold paint. They're great for a driver though.Ideas on the intake gasket?
If blue I'll buy new ones.
The kit came with the metal ones.
The heat passage is pretty clogged anyway.
My concern is which one seals better.
Not buying new.
