Intake questions
The two highlighted outlets are not connected for crossover? Instead if you pour water in either side it flowed out top of intake instead of filling to level of other side.

Re: Intake questions
is there a hole that would mate against the bottom of the carburetor base when mounted?
some have that and it will not hold water because of it I'd imagine.

Re: Intake questions
Those are heat risers, so they should not leak into the actual intake system - unless the manifold is cracked or corroded through. While I only run racing type intakes, I can't think of how/why the water should ever enter the actual intake side of the manifold.
Looks to me like you need a new intake manifold. |

Re: Intake questions
I find both holes to often be filled with carbon from the exhaust. I use a long pick to break through. The hole in the intake below the carb gasket is supposed to be there, to me there doesn't sound like you have much of a problem.

Re: Intake questions
To all Thanks for input. Got her back together and she looks and sounds much better than she did with the leaky, repaired intake. Thank you too Lawson for the intake. In case you start looking for it, I have it.
