I personally did not upgrade the AP, although I did remove the control (shutter) valve from the intake manifold. I used some of that magnum steel epoxy type stuff they have at auto zone. Worked really good. No pics, sorry.

4 bolts is all that holds the intake on. the gasket must have it stuck really good. those hex bolts ur talking about are plugs in the coolant passage. and i never added any more gaskets after making the secondaries mechanical.

Yea I wish I would have known about the coolent also, I should have known better but i want thinking clearly. As it exploded all over my garage floor.
The intake on the engine are larger than the ones on the manifold, and the gasket will cover part of the intake up, but it is supposed to be like that.
As you can see form the pictues below

Exhaust gas recirculation. I would tell you just to fill that square port in the engine with JB weld, but I don't know how it'll affect a stock car, I've only done it to one with a weber.

thats what i was thinkin the site was a waste of energy could have learned 2min of actually real knowledge about my rotang
Yes I was right about the EGR!!
When I got my new RB intake for my dell it didnt have a spot for it, I just bolted it on, didnt bother to fill it with JB, not worth it IMO.

JB weld is a shade tree mechanics best friend!
It is a compound that seals, bonds, etc.. You can use it for many applications. I have used to to hold my stereo headunit to my custom mount bracket in my pinto. Broke off a plactic lens cap on my light on my pinto JB wled that back together! Its the bomb! way stronger than super glue!
