When installing this intake it says to put Gasgacinch to the cylinder head flange and to the cylinder head side of the gasket. Do the gaskets go under the valley pan, attach the gasket to the cylinder head then the valley pan goes over that then the intake goes on? Little confused by the directions.

I don't use the gaskets. Just the valley pan and a bead of RTV on the front and rear.

But they have to be the paper gaskets or it's too thick.

if you had millwork you may need the gaskets. there are thick ones and thin ones..what commando was sayin.
on my stock application, i used blue on both sides and black at the corners like said ^^ above. worked like a charm.

If it fits with them - use the paper. If it doesn't fit with them, just use the pan and I use a thin skin of ultra grey rtv around the ports and valley flange with and dabs in the corners.
