    Intake Seals

    Some recent post on intake leaks inspired me to revisit my Service Manual and Parts Catalog.

    Beside being reminded that (at least on EVO's) the front and rear manifold mounting flanges are different (by part number in the PC but not mentioned in the SM) the SM does not mention the use of Loctite
    on the flange bolts.

    Is it recommended to use Loctite on the intake manifold mounting flange bolts or should they be dry torqued?

    I never use Loctite on these.
