RE: intake exhaust crossover port By Dave Shoe - 03/14/2001 8:16:27 PM; IP 12.2.11.131 Weld the intake manifold closed. Some folk just use a blocked-off intake manifold gasket, but they'll just burn-up and blow themselves apart. Actually, it doesn't matter which type of intake manufold gasket you use (blocked off or normal) if the manifold is welded shut - it'll seal either way. If it's an iron intake, I'd mill out a small rectangular recess about .065" deep and stick a piece of 1/16" steel into the recess. This'll hold up fine, even if the engine backfires. Too thin a steel plate can blow-out during a backfire. Shoe.

This thread, so far...
