2K gtp 3.8 sc Lower intake

I need to replace the upper and lower intake gaskets on my GTP.
It is a 2K 3.8 SC.

I have never changed a gasket on this vehicle or any SC GTP's before now. Are there any special inherited "gotchas" with this R&R.

Secondly, what are the torque specifications for the SC to the lower?

Thirdly, what are the torque specs for the lower to the block?

Thanks.

Thanks for the info.

You guys are on it.

I would book a whole day or 2 for this if you've never done it before. It's not too bad though, just alot to remove

Why do u need to replace gaskets if i may ask?

I am seeing a little seepage around the intake where it meets the head on the number 1 or 2 intake runner. (the front of the engine on the passenger side and I have to add about 8 ounces every 3-4 weeks). From all that I have read in the various discussions it appears that this is a common problem with the engine disign.

It's def coming for the gasket and not maybe from the plastic elbow that runs to the water pump??

When u buy the gaskets make sure and get the 2 yellow orings also, they are usually deformed and that is the area that you'll end up scrapping the most old gasket off.
