		I actually couldn't pinpoint the end of the crack so I didn't try drilling it out.  I also learned that brazing while the intake is on the engine will most likely yield unsuccessful results.   I presently applied something called "Marine-Tex" which I've used successfully on dozens of applications on my old boat. It really is amazing stuff that bonds to almost anything, especially metals, and cures to a steel like hardness.  I figure it should hold me for quite a while until I forget what a pain it was to remove & replace the cast intake and do it again with another piece.   Thanks again for the help,  Sam  |
