edel performer intake install questions....again

[96darkhorse]

well i got the gears done today...gonna do the intake tommorow morning.....im currently using the stock throttle body, so the question is : obviously, the manifold and elbow openings are 70mm and the stock throttle body is smaller (60mm? i think); i cant use the stock gaskets cus the holes dont obviously line up, and i doubt ill find the gaskets in 70 mm size exclusively made for teh edel elbow and intake.....is there any options around this?? do they sell the gasket pages so you can do your own gasket? i hope i dont sound naive about this, but i never done a intake install before and this is my first time....any help will be appreciated

you could cut the gaskets, to open them up a bit. And, well they're paper gaskets, you could make your own. I've done it several times with success. You can trace and cut what you need. I've used manilla folders as gaskets. Anything like like will work. I even had to make ine for a water pump for my BMW, when I lived in Germany. Allt he stores were closed on Sunday, and I needed a gasket, made it, worked great, still on the car 3.5 yrs later. Just a suggestion, good luck man
