upgrade if you have the money, get a new one if you don't. To be honest, you could probably reuse the old gasket, but you are in there anyway and the stress on the gasket is so high, not to mention who knows when the next time you will have the IM off. Might as well get a new gasket to save yourself the worry and trouble later.

You can replace it like everyone says, I know RPW sell intake manifold gaskets, (which I have had for about 4 months and haven't even touched it - lol).
Not sure about any other place.

Silly question about this: On their site they state they do the work on your core. Did you send in the IM for them to work on your core, or do they something similar to what RRM is doing? Only reason I ask is because the way this is being phrased in this thread it potentially sounds like he was able to just order it from them.

Hello guys, just wanted to drop in and answer any questions you have. Otter has answered some of your questions..thank you sir!
Yes, we port your manifold. Turn around time is very quick for just porting. We can also have it coated by Swain Tech. to help pull heat out of the manifold. This is a black coating.
