How critical is...

[yesIdid]

Applying RTV between the lower intake and the intake to head gasket on the H20 passages. I'm buttoning-up the engine and I put a bead of RTV around the h20 passages underneath the gasket but not on top ; guess I was excited about finishing and simply PH####D UP . I realized this, naturally after I set the manifold down and torqued everything.

Do u think I should worry about it????

No biggie, it just means you may have to pull the intake in a few years because of a coolant leak, but that will give you an excuss to upgrage intakes

Where Y'at YesIdid, If you used FelPro Printoseal its not a problem cause they already have a silicone around the openings. Those don't need any more. I hope that what you used.

I didn't see any material around the water passage openings on the gasket ; but, they're Felpro and the instructions specifically say not to use chemical adhesive:tu: . I should be aight then .
