Measure the phenolic spacer between the runners and the head.
Its easy enough to remove one side. Go to a metal shop (yellow pages) and get a piece of aluminum that is the correct thickness...damn close it OK...there is a bit of play in the system that will accomidate a few 10th difference. Draw out the gasket onto the aluminum.. Layout all the holes first and drill them while its still a rectangular piece of aluminum...its easier to clamp down in that shape. You can cut it with hand tools, a jig saw or bandsaw, and use hand files to get it right. Header tape it easily obtainable from summit racing or a motorcycle shop. Another idea to think about...if you remove the hoses that go to the heater fan (in the engine bay) and feel the amount of air that blows up from those holes...its pretty significant. You could route that air (temporarily) and aim it at the intake runners.. This is done on the 356. The 356 uses a simple flapper that is controlled by a cable in the cockpit... Open the flapper and direct air at the intake runners...close flapper and air will go back into the normal heating system. Rich |
