Intake/Belly Pan Gaskets

Might dive in and do these this weekend, have a few quick questions. 1. Do
the magnum and pre-magnum engines use the same intake to head gasket? I
have a set laying around I would like to use. 2. Is it best to just use a
gasket maker on the belly pan, or just the gasket itself, or a combination
of both? 3. Intake bolts; is it really necessary to replace them, and if it
is, any problems using hardware store bolts? That'd be a lot cheaper!

Unrelated question: is there any better product out there for cleaning out
the top end of a motor than the GM Top End Cleaner? Sea Foam maybe?

Another unrelated question: saw someone mention something about the
transmission fluid types, Dextron 3 vs 4. I've seen both stated as the
reccomended fluid. Which is right? I used 3...

Unrelated note: Duals are on, sounds great, looks awesome!
