Installation Notes and Tips
Clean both mating surfaces before installation and verify the carburetor flange and intake manifold are flat and free of old gasket material. Confirm the bolt pattern and application notes, including 4-notch bypass and any vehicle-specific requirements such as 1 or 2 required on select Pontiac listings. Use the correct Fel-Pro 8987 gasket for the exact carburetor and intake combination listed in the fitment data.
