Intake manifold makeover Posted: Sat May 11, 2019 7:04 am     Views: 48      Rating: Not rated

Friend gave me a non-running dual-port engine several years ago. I tore it down and will use the engine case for a mild stroker build. The other parts are being redone as time and interest permits. I started with the intake manifold. Degreased it, then cleared out the carbon-blocked preheat pipe with a section of handbrake cable. After the degreasing, the rust on the preheat pipes are evident. Left pipe shown; right pipe was similar. I wanted to try to improve the appearance of the manifold and especially the preheat pipe with some basic home tools.
