Felt a slight improvement, hoping once it relearns it will get better.

Did you use RTD sealant or a gasket as some I have seen do ?

I used a sealant, from my understanding if you use a gasket you will need longer bolts. That's the only reason I used a sealant.

I have the longer bolts but I don't think I'm going to use them. Like you it's been sitting around waiting for me to install. I have paint alreadys for valve covers and intake i just need to get my rear in gear. I hate it when work gets in the way of mods !

As to re-sealing with RTV, when I tried to remove my Mace intake spacer, it took several good whacks with a rubber mallet to knock it off! That thing was going nowhere until I really wanted it to move. |

Total time minus the time it took to paint was about 1 hour, 2 with the paint. I have to take off and put a few more coats of paint on it. The back bolts weren't as bad as I was expecting. Just remember the 4 middle bolts are longer the the front and back ones.
I'll get some pics up in a day or 2.
