I need to remove the intake manifold to replace the choke tube assembly. What gaskets do I need to order to complete the replacement of the manifold once the choke tube is installed? I assume there are a bunch. I plan on doing the thermostat while I have it off as well. Also any tips for making the job easier?

You'll need these two for the manifold to the cylinder heads (the metal edged areas seal off the exhaust gas transfer passage where the choke tube is located);

I've not found where you can get the thermostat housing gasket on its own but its simple enough to make one from gasket paper.

You'll find it easier to removal the parts of the old choke tube and install the new one if the carb is removed. If its a Holley here are the gaskets for refitting;
