You don't need gasket sealer on the upper intake, the lower you should use the RTV on the front and rear of the intake. Where the cork gaskets are located. I prefer to use just RTV and no gasket in this location, the cork ones tend to slip out occasionally. Use a large 1/4" bead if you don't use gaskets here. I like to use alignment pins so that when you lower the intake into place it drops straight down creating a good seal. I took 4 5/16 x 3" or 4" long bolts, cut the heads off and grind a radius on the ends to make alignment pins.
