Need new manifold gaskets for 3.9 LS

[cali_lincoln]

I have a '03 LS 3.9 V8. The dealer says that there is an intake manifold leak, but there is no availability for the gaskets and I would need to buy a complete manifold assembly. Any suggestions as to where I could find the gasket alone?

You need two of 2W9Z-9439-AA

What? The V8 only has a one piece intake manifold. The only intake manifold gaskets are between the intake manifold and the block.

If your V8 intake manifold is in more that one piece, then it is broken and must be replaced.



17 = gaskets

No, it's a v8 I've heard it has upper and lower intake gaskets

When i search for gaskets they all say lower

 

[oddball]

You heard wrong. The v6 has upper and lower, not the v8.
