Kyle,

I'm heading down to CA this weekend. I've already got about 6 of the rubber
gaskets waiting for me at Speed Merchant. You need some?

Well I have been using a gasket I found at NAPA made for carburetors with
5 -1/8" necks. This gasket is like a pressed gasket, similar to the TB
gasket, just thicker. I ran me $2.75. I was going to pay $9.39 through
Summit and order a Holley gasket, which would fit any carb/TB with a 5-1/8
neck. Today I stopped by the dealer to pick up a new AIS/IAC sensor, and
found that infact I should have had one on my truck this entire time.
Whoops! The dealer gasket is a rubber like gasket(feels like a serpentine
belt like rubber) and is about 1/4" thick. The part number for this gasket
is 53032451-AA and it costs $2.95.

Side note: The AIS/IAC sensor's part number is 53030657-AC and it ran me
$51.85.
