Default Plugging heat riser

I wished I would have looked at this closer earlier. I want to block the HR and asked Butler about it more than once. Their tech guy says the gasket will do it.
It has no steel insert that I can see.

I suggested to him they should offer a option to plug it with a thin pipe plug.

The Edelbrock heads are mounted. the angled hole is barely bigger than a penny. I thinking of using the high temp JB Weld and epoxying a couple of pennys in the heat riser hole.

Looking for some feedback on this.
I have received great advice on here and it’s great for a novice like me.

Thanks!


I’ll try to post some pics of my engine build when I’m through.
