i took off my KKM intake and put back my stock intake box(for SVT) but i noticed a gap between the plastic box and the throttle body when i joined them together, is there supposed to be a seal or o-ring of some sort that goes between the two?

I think you might be mixing up part names. The air box does not attach to the throttle body. It attaches to the MAF pipe, then accordion tube, then throttle body.

YES, YOU ARE CORRECT, IT IS THE MAF PIPE, I WAS THINKING ITS THE THROTTLE BECAUSE ITS METAL, BUT ANYWAY, IS THERE A SEAL,BRACKET, OR O-RING THAT GOES BETWEEN THE STOCK SVT AIR BOX AND THE MAF PIPE? BEACUSE I HAVE ABOUT A 1/8 GAP BETWEEN THE TWO.

Nothing that I can think of off that that's missing on it, but I can't picture it anymore because I dont have the stock intake now.

The only thing I remember is just the plastic bracket that the air box locks onto. But IIRC, nothing else between them.

Not mine, but a SVT intake on a Mystique.

yes there is a seal that goes between the airbox and the maf, it incorperates a screen also
