Recently purchased a 72 Dart with a 383. Intake gaskets are leaking. Do I use one .62 gasket or two .30 gaskets for best seal???
 
I use the high performance gaskets that have the metal pan, and 4 fiber gaskets. I glue the fiber gaskets to the pan. One on intake side. One on head side. Then I use rtv to seal the head to fiber gaskets, and the same for the intake. Not sure of the thickness. You can use a feeler gauge to try to get an idea of how thick the gaskets need to be. I got mine from Fel-Pro.
 
Thanks for the info. Tha's the way I'm going to do it. Makes more sense then using one gasket leaving one side of the metal from the valley pan without one.
