I'd stay away form Edlebrock, anything that can be 50 state legal cannot flow to good.

yeah they aren't hard but why do it a bunch of times if you can just get a better flange and avoid the issue altogether

Well I figured that they would get better gaskets on their own...

BUT- if the gaskets need to be changed it's not as hard as people think- thats all I was sayin-
