  • upper intake manifold

    so this isn't a performance or apperance mod so I'll just throw it in here. I was curious about the intake manifold on the 3.5-if I took the upper portion off to polish it are there paper gaskets or does it use a small rubber gasket around its perimeter that is reusable? Also so you guys think polishing holds in more heat? I polished the cam cover on my 2.2 ecotec back in the day, it was a shitload of work but looking so good afterwards.

    Probably paper, the 3400 was.. but I haven't seen one yet. Maybe Ben will chime in here.

      damn so basically something that would have to be replaced and resealed also? Hmm maybe it's worth it after all. What about heat, do you think polishing holds more heat in?

        It really shouldn't have any real effect on heat disappation. If they're just the paper ones, you might be able to get away with reusing them once, but they're not very expensive, maybe $20?

          ah ok, I'll have to see if the local parts shops around here have them available. I'd like to polish the top and just get rid of the engine cover so we'll see what happens.
