Question Aux Port Valves?

i bought a motor off of a guy that is out of an 86 n/a, he took off the actuators and blocked the holes where they were at off. i already was told i will lose top end power if i keep it that way. what if he got rid of the auxiliary port valves too, then what will happen?

You will lose bottom end power, not top end. If he removed the sleeves you might gain a small bit of top end power over stock, but it's a bad tradeoff.

There will be a major drop in low end torque, and no improvement up top.
