Return that set and get a set for a later model, like 98 or 99. It will have the rubber gaskets.

yea, just a thin bead to hold it in place. And you did cut a couple heads off a couple old bolts to help line the intake up right?

Yea a very little on both sides, and in the corners as previously stated. And yes , the cut bolts will make it a lot easier to set the intake on. I guess you didn't read this thread huh?

Well thats one of the good tips thats in it, and if more people read the whole thing, it wouldn't be as long as it is, mainly because of people asking the same questions that are already answered. ? If I didn't tell you about the bolts, there is a good possibility things would have gone bad. And just out of curiosity, are the 4 small holes for the rubber gaskets in the block?

Ok thanks. That's good to know. So for anyone that wants to read the 5 billion pages of this thread, if they have a 94 to 97 Ram, they need to get the 98 and up Felpro intake set with rubber crossover seals instead of cork.

I'm wondering,

I have a 1994 Dodge Ram with the 5.9L in it. It has the stock kegger and I have no clue if it was had the plenum replaced before I got it (7 years ago). Thus far I have no oil consumption, at least not any noticeable, no knocking, and my plug looks fine. But it had no ***** going up hills or pulling, any reason for this or would it still be the plenum?
