Alrighty everyone, the season has ended and it's time for Madeline to go into the garage for the winter and get some repairs done.

First and pretty much only repair this year is my Vac leak problem that I have been plagued with ever since I re-installed my Gen V onto my SSIC.


I'm getting a leak in the front of the mating surface, seems like it's in between the SSIC and intake manifold.

Manifold was never taken off so I don't believe that is the problem. I will be checking the blower and SSIC for any warping while everything is off.

What gaskets should I use for this install??? I've tried two OEM, removing the o-rings from the upper gasket, the last two times I've tried this install. I've also used GM adhesive each time.

I also need the torque sequence for the Gen V, anyone have it???

Any suggestions and / or tips would be greatly appreciated!! THanks!!

Jason M

ive used GM OEM gaskets for both sides of my IC
and i used high temp RTV instead of GM's adhesive on both sides of each gasket and i put 2 lines, an inner line and an outer line (just incase ... if one didnt seal, the other would)
Check my car domain...Ive got a coupla pics after the gaskets where done (the 2 O rings in the pic where taken off too)
