Crack in the intake boot equals....

Well here are some pictrues of what happens to a new top end when too much air gets in the system.

I have everything torn down and split the cases so I can clean out all the aluminum shrapnal. As you can see the left hand is perfect but now I'm going to see if I can get the right side either honed, or sleeved to match the left.

 

Question - When you go to a billet intake, do you have to use spacers also? I'm going to eliminate this from happening again and go to a billet intake and get rid of the crossover.

I've got the Boss intake, with the built in crossover, and it has the spacers built in. I think White Knuckle, and Boss make almost identical intakes. Someone else makes them, but I don't remember who.

Yeah the BOSS Billit intakes with the built in crossover are extremely nice.

 

If you want a pair of stock intakes (No cracks) just to get going or for spare I have a set for 20 shipped.
