Default Intake Manifold replacement

The time has finally come for me to replace my intake manifold. Leaking now. Does anyone have the step by step instructions on doing this? I will not be adding PI heads, just the PI intake. I remember some months ago that there also was some aftermarket gaskets to compensate for the mix matching of the PI intake and non-PI heads. I could use that info too. I may just go with the extra sealant but would like the other option too. Now if there is someone in the Stockbridge-Jonesboro(Atlanta) area that has done this and would like to give me a hand well that would be just dandyl...

NOT GOOD AT ALL!! DO NOT PUT THE PI INTAKE ON. The PI intake ports do not match your heads. It will hurt your car more than improve it. I did the opposite. I put the PI heads on with the stock intake and the ports dont match. Stock ports on your heads are cicular and the intake has more oval ports for the PI heads.

LuvBottles97GT, calm down. You can put a PI Intake on non-PI heads. It's been done over and over again. Guys here on this site probably can validate my claim along with the sites below. Now that what you did I(mixing a non-PI intake with PI heads) Now that I can see NOT working....

LuvBottles97GT-a non-pi manifold on Pi heads would be a very poor combo.

I already have the PI intake on a non-PI head and my car made
255hp, 311tq with just a catted x-pipe and manifold-now that combo works.
I have plates for sale $100 see site for link

Yeah I'm an idiot. Didnt know about the plates. After I posted that I knew that someone was gonna be able to prove me wrong. As far as my set up, I have the PI intake now and I'm getting the P-51.

let's just say you made a mistake. Look further into the P-51 manifold
I think its getting mixed reviews.
