since I am upgrading to 440cc injectors I am replacing plenum gasket, I picked it up today from the dealership and I just realized that there's actually 3 very thin gaskets, but when I took it off the one from the car; there was only one do I need to use all three?

This is the gasket btw (the long one) http://70.86.201.180/forum/showthread.php?t=52257

maybe they squish together and fuse to one?

The gasket I bought from the dealer was the same way, but they were all attached to each other. I should take a look at my old gasket. On a related note, do we need to replace that gasket every time we remove the plenium?

No you don't. I just put some regular motor oil to lube it up then put the lower manifold on.

I've taken my plenum off more times than I can recount. I've had the same gasket in there since I bought the car.

If you want, buy a can of copperspray and hook it up.

Your multiply gaskets should work nicely. Head gaskets have multiple ply to them :bigthumb:

this is going to be like the 6th, 7th I have taken the plenum off, I figured it was time to change it lol. I just wanted to make sure it was ok to use it, thanks.

Guys those are the two lower intake plenum gaskets for the heads. There is one for the upper to lower section, then the two intake gaskets that mate on the heads. You only need the large one for the upper plenum

but, are all three exactly the same?

They shouldn't be. Two should be indentical, then one different.

For his purposes, I doubt he is removing the lower intake manifold, just the upper. So effectively one gasket is in question here (not counting a TB gasket depending on how you remove the plenum)
