Consumer Description

I HAVE REPLACED THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET TWICE NOW FOR MY 1996 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. BOTH TIMES IT HAS COST ME OVER $650.00. BOTH MECHANICS TOLD ME THAT THEY SEE THESE AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK ON THE 5.7 ENGINES. THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. THEY ACTUALLY LAUGHED WHEN I ASKED THEM IF IT WAS SET UP AS A RECALL ITEM FOR THIS ENGINE. *JB
