" My 1997 SeaMaxx 454 Big bloc
" My 1997 SeaMaxx 454 Big block has had chronic leaking gaskets where the riser extension meets the manifold and where the riser itself meets the extension. It has ruined one set of manifolds and I want to prevent losing another set. I am replacing the gaskets myself this time, but want to know if anyone would recommend double-gaskets, and what kind (if any) gasket sealant I should use. It seems that I get a lot of suction from this monster that may tend to suck water through the gaskets and hasten their demise. This set of gaskets started leaking in less than a full season (about 75 hours). "
