choke block off plate gasket
I have an Edelbrock Performer intake with a 650 Holley carburator on my 69 Firebirds 400 engine....its a manual choke ,so there`s the choke block off plate on it...
last week I encountered an exh leak, and located it to a blown gasket at the choke block off plate...made my own temporarily with the Mr Gasket gasket material...BUT I am hoping I could find this type gasket in aluminum ,copper or such., what was there was not..... anyone have an idea on where I could find that ,if available? I checked closest O`Reilly, no such luck...

I made a block off plate on both sides of the exhaust ports in the heads with a Stainless steel plate. The stainless plates are durable and will last a very long time.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
