RE: Intake Manifold Plenum Pan Gasket

Fixed mine without any leaks. Factory Mopar Gasket and Ultra Copper.
Remember, it's a STEEL plate mated to an ALUMINUM manifold. These have
different heat (warpage) characteristics and the gasket works as a "buffer"
on the mating surfaces. RTV will work (no question about that)...but for
how long?
