My carbs are not going back on the car this weekend while I wait for some parts to be custom made.

So, how can I check to see if my SSIs have leaks, without a smoke machine or running the engine? I have the time, may as well use it.

If you have a single exhaust outlet, you can try pressurizing it. The open and partially open exhaust valves may fool ya.

Cap off the exhaust tip and turn the motor over with the starter?
