i am wondering if anyone knows a part number or the proper name for the intake horn gasket where the intake horn bolts to the heating grids. every time i go to the parts store and ask for one they always pull up the gasket for the intake plate where it bolts to the block. i've tried to explain it but then i get the deer in the headlights look. i want to take mine off and paint it to match the intercooler tubes when i get home in a month or so but i want the gasket so i can be sure it doesn't leak. any help is always appreciated


Thanks

From Dodge it is called the Air Inlet Gasket; it is part number 5010480AB.

 

FWIW, I've had my air horn on and off dozens of times and its never been an issue. Cummins P/N 3969988

 

thanks for the numbers!!! the reason i want to get it is because when i took the valve covers off a couple of them broke so i had to drive the wifes car to get them, so i would rather have it on hand just incase. and Thanks again!!

 

Yeah, I've pulled mine off and put it back on with no problems. But, yeah, better safe than sorry

 

I to had that prob. once looking for that same gasket, i ended up getting the other int. gasket from o'reillys and it ended up comming with the grid heater gasket too. Just one though.

 

so are both gaskets, on top and on bottom, for the grid heaters the same?

 

Top and bottom of what? The piece that houses the grid heater is an extension of the plate that it looks like it bolts to. Looks are slightly deceiving there, if I'm understanding you correctly.

 

yes i'm talking about where the intake horn bolts to.... so how does the grid delete kit work?

 

gaskets are identical top and bottom

 

I think the confusion is/ on the 12v the heater is made into the manifold lid so only one gasket is needed, but on the 24v and on, the grid is external and requires 2 of the same gaskets one on top and the other on the bottom. I deleted my grid heaters in mine and taped all 4 of the holes and installed 1/8" pipe plugs, well now im using one for the W/M signal and have a nozzle in another.

 

so the grid heater is built into the cover and i only need one gasket.... Thanks stock600.
