I need to tap the collective wisdom of this group once again.

When I bought my coach I discovered a significant lateral crack on the floor of the intake manifold and I decided to replace the cast iron piece with an Edlebrock Performer.

After 5 years of tripping over 3 versions of the dog house I give up!

I found a perfect Toronado intake last week and I plan on installing it over the next few days and now my delema:

I have fabricated a pair of stainless plates from a ground down
kichen knife that would never stay sharp.

The question is should I drill, say 1/4 inch hole in each plate to give some early heat to the TBI, or should they remain blank??

Any thoughts?
