Ive done this...

All i did was get an mfi gasket and use it as a templet on some thin plate, cut the plate out and then sandwiched it between inlet manifold and head.. this did work but i would not advise it, you still dont know if your getting small air leaks. there be another option but the best is just to go efi !!!

I have plates that have no injector cutout, which means you can use an MFi inlet manifold on a EFi head.

Post sum pics soon.

Not always mate.

What happens if someone has turned down the idle speed, or turned the amount of fuel up or down to idle better?
