go back to your intake manifold and re torque it following the torque pattern and specs in the manual. Also though not required on these engines you might want to use new intake manifold bolts. On my Pontiac the gasket kit came with new bolts.
I cleaned all the bolts and holes with a tap/die set, so they should be good. I'll have to try the retorque.
