Engine Power update

[Bob Johnson]

I replaced the cracked B intake manifold with an A intake manifold. I was able to surface the intake and exhaust manifolds myself on my 3-1 Shoptask, with lots of time spent setting it up. I had a local club member bore out the throat of the A intake manifold to B size. When installed it runs a lot better. 1-2 are pulling their weight.

Thanks too all that had suggestions.

Good to hear about the fix.

Seems the OP said there was no intake leak. Several fellas still asked about that. Most of these problems do turn out to be simple, these are simple cars. Its nice when all 4 holes are pulling their weight.
