Nothing a bit of Z-Spar can't correct. Just be sure to coat it if your running alcohol.

it's hard to see in the picture. Is the bottom of the intake and head lined up? Or is the intake higher?

be careful with it misaligned like that. fuel tends to hit the port and stop being atomized with the air. then it starts to drip off the edge causing it to load up at an idle. when you clear it out, air velocity cleans it off and it gets even richer. it wont be something you can effectively tune out of it.

Oh great , I just keep getting more and more good news with these damn intakes.
You can see the injector hole.. 50% thru blower 50% thru port injection.
I guess Ill find out how that works out, thanx for the heads up. when it`s rich at idle I`ll know why at least .

What a $hit show. I should have jut kept my old intakes but nooooo, I had to try something different .

You or the guy that modified the intakes?

The only thing IMO about that article you linked that makes it sort of irrelevant in your case.
You're way above an average street engine and the margin for error diminishes the higher you go.
The answer is no, but for your average street engine builder, it’s an area of minimal concern.

Dan,

Just a thought.....

Get some Dykem spray layout dye, and give each intake tunnel a shot or two, making sure to sufficiently cover the mismatch. Let it dry. Remove your intake. Scribe a line around the perimeter of the Dykem. With an 1/8" carbide end mill in a Dremel and a steady hand, carve away that mismatch and forget it. A little bit of lacquer thinner and the Dykem overspray is gone. Yes, you will have to be very careful to avoid getting any aluminum chips into the nooks and crannies, and very diligent in removing any that manage to get in them.

Dykem Spray Blue

Thanks. Brad.
