Please help!
My intake manifold housing exploded and blew out the sides of the housing.
Apparently besides having a fuel leak, the intake cover bolts were to tight and when the engine backfired, the explosion was not relieved through the intake cover.
This is from the Northstar engine that have the plastic, individual intake tubes.
Is an intake manifold housing from a newer northstar interchangeable with the gen 1 model?
Please contact me if you have one available or know of a source where I can order one.
I'm restoring this car and would hate to part it out.
Thanks
Pete
