Description
Product Overview
The Vrytos Intake Manifold Gasket is a precision‑engineered component designed for 1989‑2009 Dodge 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with Cummins ISB, QSB, and ISD engines ranging from 3.9L to 6.7L. Constructed from high‑grade graphite, the gasket offers excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and a superior sealing surface that conforms to the engine’s intake manifold contours. Its dimensions (7.08 x 5.9 x 0.39 inches) and lightweight design (0.96 ounces) ensure a perfect fit without adding unnecessary mass.
Usage
This gasket is intended for replacement of OE part numbers 3969988, 3931604, 3938158, 4429352, 5086721AB, and 5010480AB. It is ideal for professional mechanics, fleet maintenance shops, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable seal for intake manifolds on Dodge trucks. Install the gasket during routine engine rebuilds, after a leak diagnosis, or when upgrading to higher performance components. The graphite material tolerates the high‑temperature environment of the intake system, making it suitable for both daily driving and heavy‑duty applications.
