I got my Amazon air gap.intake and it looks pretty good. Im going to clean up the casting flash and install it. I primed my motor and found thebplug on the rear china wall starting to seep. I used aircraft sealant and sunk it down to were I thought it should go. Any suggestions?

I tried seating the plug a little deeper and it still seeped. Pulled it and found the issue, a shard on the side.

I installed another plug and primed it and it leaked as well. I Finally got the third plug to seal. I used a 3m scotch bright to rough the edge of the plug to rough up and used a liberal amount of this retaining compound. Let it set for 24 hours. Hit it with the prime tool, no leak. Not ashamed to admit i used Gemini to trouble shoot this. How many of you guys use this tool for specs or quick technical questions?

I had ordered an Amazon air gap intake and it looked pretty good. I started cleaning up the flashing. The one issue i have is the rear runner port is not square. I squared it up best i could.

My buddy at work had a megasquirt ms1 v2.2 with holly throttle body. The harness was hacked up and missing few of the vital circuits. So I ordered a few sensors and a tune cable and ill try my hand at trying to get it up and running.

On my fist attempt to access the ms1 it would not communicate. Long story short v ref was at 2.6 volts so I had something taking down the voltage. Disconnected the main harness and jumped power and ground and the unit started communicating and I was able to start making adjustments to the software. So the main harness that is all hacked up has a short in it. Now I get to build a harness and go from there .

Looks familiar, other than missing the "ProComp" branding on the runner.

Although I still haven't gotten the Cobra back together yet, I figured I could post a couple pics of what I did before the accident. Someone on the Fox forums was asking about the seller Speedmaster which prompted me to dig this thread up for reference.

Here are my roughly finished ports. They now measure about 1.2 x 2.0. Looks like I will still have to finish them.....

Here is the milled center divider...

Are you thinking of cutting the plenum divider as well?

I blended the divider and smoothed it out some. the tbi adapter has it standing off the mounting surface some.

As shared in that thread, I cut mine down about 1/2" then used a 1/2" spacer for my fuel injection setup.

I kind of have of set that way. I am running out of hood clearance. The tbi is shorter but the air gap stands up more than a regular manifold.
