gasket on intake plenum

i now this was mentioned before but i don't remeber and i'm lazy and don't want to search for it
is there a gasket for these or is it just rtv?
since i'll be upgrading to a late model setup and a turbonetics turbo i'd like to know before i tear into it

Nope, no gaskets. Just the gray RTV sealant.

Hey justblowen, Does your 7.3 have screens inside the intake plenums. I have a 99.5 7.3 that didnt and I installed a 2000 engine that had screens inside the plenums. Im wondering if these screens would have an effect on power and loss of fuel mileage.
