Edelbrock makes a thin metal plate to solve this problem. It comes with their big block Performer intake, but they do sell it separately. I don't know the part number, but I saw it once on their website. Sean ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person. I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
