I'm doing a cam swap next weekend and I'm getting all my stuff together now. What sealant has everyone used on their intake manifold. I don't want any oil leaks when I put her back together. Is it the permatex black stuff that's oil resistant?? I have thread locker and sealant as well. Thanks.

 

I'm pretty sure all RTV's are oil "resistant", but to answer your specific question, yep, that's what I used, the Permatex Black RTV Sealer on my intake manifold, and it's been holding great for two years now.

Good Luck! with your cam swap.

Both the orange stuff and the black stuff have held up fine for me. Used both, but I've been using the black stuff lately.
