I have a 64 Lemans with a 400. I want to block off the ports on the heads that feed the heat riser { both heads }. Any ideas? Merlin

Felpro 1233 intake set has optional block-offs. The best way is to fill the passages with aluminum.

Mr. P-Body, Should I use the aluminum with the gasket or by it's self? Merlin

If you fill the passages, you won't need the block-off that comes with the gaskets. If your ports aren't raised to Ram Air IV height, you could use a standard gasket with the filled heads.

Mr. P-Body, I thought you wanted me to use aluminum sheet stock or the gasket, I was confused. That happens alot at my age. Thanks aloy for your help. Merlin

Hey Gordo!

The method Mr. P-body is describing involves removing the heads to have them filled with molten aluminum.

Have you purchsed your gaskets yet? Shoot me a mail or give me a call to discuss.

Talk to you soon,

Kev
