Supercharged 3800 Intake leak?


Guest

Recommended Posts

I've been told that the post `92 3800 ( when they went to the plastic intake) will melt the intake and allow water into the cylinders...wil this happen on the supercharged engine as well as the non supercharged? Is there a way to stop this before it happines?

[color:"blue"]Indiana GSCA member Darwin Larsin at their March technical session was showing us his plastic intake and the area that eventually fails adjacent to a water passage. This allows coolent to accumulate in a void and eventually either get pulled into the intake change or into the crankcase. Neither is good. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

The supercharged intake is not plastic so is not subject to the same failure.
