intake gasket keeps blown

[big fish]

changed it three times already. keeps blown out front and back . someone told me it was my air cleaner. I have a edlb carb & air cleaner on it . but nothing hooked to air cleaner just to carb.I was told to hook to air cleaner not carb. If anybody know what I could do I would apperiate it .

I had the same problem not to long ago, I bought the gaskets, I want to say they were Mr Gasket, but I don't remember the name. Bought new intake bolts used sealant on the intake bolts torq in proper order, and proper lbs, put a nice bead of silicone, (black RTV), and let set over night, and bought a new PCV, and a good crank case breather. The PCV will not vent it enough, and have not had a problem since. Make sure you have a good clean surface, on the block, and the intake.

I dont use the rubber valley gaskets on the ends either. Just a thick bead of BLASK RTV. Let it sit up for about 30 min, Sit intake on it with a couple bolts on the end of the intake just finger tight for alignment. Let it sit a couple hours and torque it down. Let it sit overnight before you start it up.
