For a summer only mostly street driven car should I block the crossover or use it.The engine is ~450HP 393 with a stealth intake. How much power do you loose running a hot manifold. Has anyone ever done a back to back test? Thanks, Jeff

I haven't done any tests but I'd block them, cooler gas means more power.------------------ SCOOP oddly obsessed with big scoops on little Mustangs 65 coupe,351w,C4,Big Boss 429 hood scoop,8" 3.40 TracLoc. My Pics

I have read that you lose 1 percent per 11 Deg F in increase. Soo...you should block the crossover for more power. Hans
