Default intake gasket

I wonder how much a intake gasket cost on a 96 chevy blazer?

Bring it over to my place....I'll do it for the cost of the FelPro gasket set and a gallon of coolant...should be about $45.
Give me something to do.

Call up the parts store and ask. Shops generally mark up their parts prices 50-100%.

Felpro gasket (MS98002T) is almost $70 on Amazon! $45 including a gallon of Dexcool is a super bargain! Where do you shop for parts?

Only if you want problems... Dexcool and ethylene glycol are NOT compatible with each other, and switching to ethylene glycol will cause other problems. There are several threads on the forum that explain.
