Not Ranked
I do not torque mine, I just hand tighten, (but I am careful) but I do coat the gasket both sides with Motorkraft TA-31 Sealant and let it set for 24 hours before adding any fluid. This is the way I have done it for over 30 years and I have never had a problem. I just did my 427 F.E. this last winter, I did the Intake (Blue Thunder) and my Header Tank, I have not had any problems.
