Has anyone here replaced the intake maifold gaskets on a 98 or similar model Chevy/GMC truck? Mine has a 5.0 or 305 motor that is leaking coolant badly at the back of the cylinder head at the intake manifold. Everything I've read says to change the manifold gaskets so I guess that's what I'm in for. How long will the job take for average shade tree mechanic, 8 hours?
