I will be putting my throttle body back on the plenum, and the intake runners back on , so my question is what is the standard practice here? is the gasket itself dry seal sufficiently with just the proper torque of the bolts to compress the seal between the two surfaces, or should there be some type of agent applies as well.,
Thanks

Nothing but dry gaskets on my 2.0 and no vacuum leaks. obviously key to make sure the surfaces are clean and flat. The PO used sealant around the TB and I had to scrape and refinish the plenum.
