when you remove your emissions, youll have a huge *** hole in your intake. The plates will seal off this mother of all vacuum leaks. Actaully the same goes for any vac leak.

i got my block off plates from

http://www.2751engineering.com/2751parts.html

They were well made, and easy to instal - You can also make your own. And yes, there are quite big holes after you remove the emisions stuff. But sure does make it less complicated to re-do vacum hoses =)
