Inlet manifold gasket

[silverknight2010]

Hi I am needing help I need to do the inlet manifold gaskets on my 02 VX and i brought a set of eBay but I ordered the wrong ones & I can’t get an exchange so my question is….

Can I use the gaskets for a supercharged V6 on a standard ecotech except for the cut outs they look the same?

And what are the cut out for??

Cheers

They should look like this,

Both the ecotec and L67 use the same intake manifold gaskets.

Yes they are exactly the same. The metal gaskets are even made in the US for their V6 over there NA and SC.

Way back when there may have been 2 different gaskets but in reality there is no need. The cut outs are to suit the injectors that fit straight into the head on the supercharged engines, Makes no difference on the standard V6 engine.
