GrnMchn Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) Does anyone have the part # for the intake manifold gasket? I am hopeing there is a gasket so it can be copied out of delrin which my friend said would not be a problem. I was thinking of having the test spacer 1/3" thick, does this sound about right? Looking around the net there are manifold spacers and plenum spacers, I am assuiming the manifold spacer would be better since it is lower?

dernt Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I am tempted to buy this for myth-busting. I would probably have a better chance at causing an intake manifold leak than seeing any performance gain. I have dyno result in my current near-stock condition.........hmmmmmm.

02silverpathy Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I have the lower intake manifold gasket part number.....the one inthe middle of the plenum would not help....as it would leave a gap in the outside edge of the plenum...that would have to be traced. #14033-4w010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarsiff Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I thought the point of a "plenum spacer" was to open up the air chamber before it gets to the lower im, in that case for the 3.5 you would need the 2 gaskets for where the upper plenum meets the lower one, which is probably why nobody makes one already even if you raised the plenum a half inch the only space would be created where the two halves meet and i dont think there would be any gains there, def not for the money involved. but if someone can prove me wrong there that would be awesome! good luck to ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02silverpathy Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I am going to find a way to route that coolant line around the thorttle body instead of through...that HAS to make a difference!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrnMchn Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I am going to find a way to route that coolant line around the thorttle body instead of through...that HAS to make a difference!? I have rerouted the coolant line through the throttle body on all my cars over the last few years without any negative effect, only a little more HP at operating temp. I did it on a 96' Z28, 96' tacoma 3.4L, and a 95 Lexus SC400 If the lines are long enough just unplug them and use a brass male/male connector in between. I haven't done this yet on my 3.5L pathfinder but am planning to.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
