Which Intake Gasket Set For Repairs

[John B]

Will be getting the upper and lower intake gaskets done on my 2000 C3500 7.4l. I was going to buy the OEM AC Delco set but wondering if anyone has experience with other sets that may be better?

Thanks,

John

OK, looks like I'm going OEM AC Delco.

That's not a thing for a 7.4. I used AC Delco on mine, same garbage I removed. Mine were distorted and weeping a little.

That's the problem. I don't want to have the issue in 50K miles. I don't know about an alternative though; guess I'll just need to apply a fair amount of RTV as well.

I asked the same thing when I did mine.
