rebuilding my 3.4 cant get the valve cover gaskets out i belive that they are cork gaskets and they wont come out for **** there is rtv silicone on them as well as i was breaking down the motor i noticed that the head sat about a 1/16 of an inch above the intake manifold on all 4 corners were they meat is this right there not warped and they are all the same 1/16 " above / to perfect to be warped is this right

 

i think your talking about the gap on each end of the intake. if this is so, u use rvt on the ends. a bead all the way across on each end, from one intake gasket to the other. this is used instead of a gasket now.

 

Picture is worth a 1000 words.

 

amen.

 

With today's economy, I'd hafta say that two pictures are now worth a thousand words!
It would help to see exactly what area you're referring to.
