spray the gasket with some copper gasket sealer to make it sticky...

I'd leave two bolts hanging out of the upper and hover it while starting them by hand before dropping it onto the lower part...

Sure I've done this before with little to no issues...

Cheers,
Tim

sounds good! ... my problem is the LPG injection setup that is around the inlet manifold :evil: ended up removing throttle body, LPG injection mounting brackets [two mount one side & one on other] & manifold vacuum actuator. brother-inlaw was able to get it in afta that :lol:
