im guessing ur trying to reuse a gasket. if so u better get a new gasket. i think it was 16 bucks for a new one from cummins. its alot cheaper to put a new one on, then put it on, and it blow off on ya. ive had it happen to me when i still had the 24v in my truck. i dont know the specs, but tight is how ive done them. good luck :tu:
