SBC Intake Gasket 1.200 x 2.000

The SBC Intake Gasket 1.200 x 2.000 is a precision composite-silicone intake manifold gasket engineered for Small Block Chevy engines requiring reliable sealing at the cylinder head-to-intake interface. This gasket is essential for any builder, restorer, or performance enthusiast working on SBC platforms—whether you're assembling a stock 350, rebuilding a carbureted classic, or finalizing a modern EFI conversion. A quality intake gasket prevents coolant and oil weeping that can compromise engine bay cleanliness and long-term reliability.

Manufactured by SCE Gaskets, a trusted name in performance gasket design, this intake manifold gasket features a 0.062-inch thickness and 1.2 x 2.01-inch rectangular port openings optimized for standard SBC cylinder heads and intake manifolds. The composite-silicone construction balances durability with conformability, sealing out coolant and preventing vacuum leaks that would trigger rough idle, hesitation, or check-engine codes on fuel-injected applications. The pair configuration ensures you have both gaskets needed for a complete intake manifold installation without additional ordering.

Mechanics and engine builders benefit most from this gasket when performing intake manifold replacement, cylinder head work, or top-end rebuilds on Small Block Chevy engines ranging from first-generation 283s through late-model 400 blocks. Installation is straightforward: position the gaskets between the cylinder head and intake manifold, torque fasteners in a cross pattern to manufacturer specifications (typically 20–30 ft-lbs for SBC applications), and verify no coolant passages are pinched. This product is compatible with OEM, Edelbrock, Performer RPM, Vortec, and other common SBC intake manifolds featuring standard rectangular port geometry.
