Well I'm ready to port/gasket match my intake manifold to the head and the head to the exhaust manifold. I just have a couple of questions about sizing and all. Are all gaskets the same size or is OEM smaller/larger? I bought a RockAuto rebuild gasket kit and the gaskets don't seem to be OEM, no way to tell that I know of, and are much larger than the runners. About 3/8 inch all the way around each runner on the intake and a little less for the exhaust. Is that the normal amount that needs to be removed to match?
I know this topic has been beat like a redheaded stepchild but I couldn't find anything pertaining to my exact questions. Thanks in advance and any other tips on porting are welcome.
