To seal or not to seal.

OK I got my new heads on and I am about to put the intake on.
All my life I have heard two opinions on this and though I would ask you guys.

I got a good set of FelPro gaskets. Should I, or should I not use gasket sealer for the intake??

Thanks!

Dry fit the intake and you will get the bead thickness for the front and rear wall height. If the rubber piece in the kit fits that thickness just a smear at the two junction points front and back and a thin film smear around the water jackets.

Works for me.
