Default upper and lower intake gaskets.

OK today i finally finished my upper and lower intake swap. i havnt cranked it up yet because i didnt have enough daylight to put on my throttle body. but someone told me that i shouldnt have used silicone on any of the gaskets. and i put silcone around each around each hole in the gaskets on each side. and the same on the upper intake. if anyone has done this swap before...tell me if it was ok to do this or not. i will redo it if its going to leak. thanks to whoever post.

I dont see why it wouldnt. I dont use any sealer when i install them, but i dont see how it would hurt anything.

Fire it up and see what happens.
