    that is the problem- since it was 20 years ago and not made anymore only a match will do- changing the system might incorporate the entire electronic control system also- or maybe just from the intake out taken from another engine that has a blown bottom end- thank you for helping-Ed

    Sir- thank you for your reply- I do believe the block is original- it is for an 8 bolt intake which matches the port engine- which I have been using as a model for changing cracked heads- at which time the cylinders and pistons were mint and there was no rust in the exhaust because it came from...

    I JUST READ SCOTT'S REPLY THAT IT IS EXHAUST GASES FOR RECIRCULATION- BUT IT CONNECTS TO THE MANIFOLD THAT HAS A WATER CIRCULATION JACKET AS PART OF ITS CONSTRUCTION-I INCORRECTLY STATED THAT IT WAS THE RISER - IT IS THE MANIFOLD
