I am having a hard time finding intake gaskets for my 454.

I am switching from a Victor Jr 454R intake to an RPM Air Gap rect intake. Looking at my ports and the gaskets I used for the single plane I don't know that I'll be able to find a set of gaskets for the dual plane for the size of teh ports in the heads.

Do you guys think a standard aftermarket style rect port gasket will work?

You could pull the heads and match them and your intake to the gasket you use. Are those GM/Edelbrock heads?

They are bastardized TBI oval port heads. I'm kind of stuck with them for now, trying to make the best of a bad situation. I learned an important and expensive lesson. Don't ever buy ported heads over the internet. These ports are huge and my engine is very mild.

that's what i would do is take off the heads and gasket match the intake and heads to the gasket,imo i think it would help and also you might want to get a new set of valve cover's and use spreader bars on the bolt's because those are warped bad......Mike

my question is, is there a gasket out there that will be big enough for these ports and still be able to use the upper hole? I can go hog wild on the intake to make it bigger. The untouched Victor Jr. was considereble smaller than the heads.

Are those Mr Gasket's?

They are FelPro P/N 1275

would the FelPro P/N 1211 work based on what my ports look like?
