- When installing an intake end seal, you may have questions surrounding the proper use of RTV. To learn why RTV may be needed and how to correctly use it, check out this video featuring Technical Product Specialist Mike Hinderer and ASE Master Certified Technician John Gurnig of the Fel-Pro® Field Test Garage.
John starts by showing examples of Fel-Pro intake end seals that are designed specifically for the repair environment to help seal imperfect sealing surfaces and then explains why RTV may be needed. He demonstrates where RTV may need to be applied where the side rails meet to ensure a tight seal and shows how to apply RTV when no end seal is present.

its easy to see that also in this case the end seals are a tiny bit to long and will squeeze out and will cause a leak for sure. spare u end seals please and include a good rtv sealant instead. !!
Used your end seals. They both failed... both split at the ends and popped out from under my intake on my gen 1 SBC 350...
RTV or nothin ✅
What etc is recommended there are two three black permatex , I ordered a Hughes plenum gasket repair kit, but ordered your engine gasket set . And I’m about to do the Intake on my 5.9 Dakota gasser 1999 with the keg I take . I aware to put small bead at the corners ... how ever the plenum plate would you used silicone there’s? Hughes recommends with there gasket , but doesn’t say about yours ..... thanks for all your work here very informative helpful .glad I subscribed
They say to not use it on the belly pan, but I am about to do one as well and I plan to use some ultra grey on mine
When I ordered my felpro set it only came with one end seal
If you're not supposed to use rtv, then how do you get the intake gaskets to stay?
Where can I find thickness of gasket? Thanks Spooln272
Does the RTV come in different colours?
@MrSuperSativa Thank you for following up on my question. I have made a note of that info.
Those get thrown in the trash and use a bead of RTV
People don’t read instructions. Not good. Thanks
The man asked how do you know when you apply too much. -__-
Not what happens when you apply too much rtv
