Hi there, I have an 86 350. I noticed that the intake in getting burned right at the exhaust crossover ports. I tried the Edelbrock intake gaskets with the blocked passages and still gets the paint burned. Does anybody have a suggestion? Is the exhaust gas too hot? It has a Quadrajet carb and the engine timing is 8deg BTDC.
Thanks!
You worry too much. Put on your trunks and flip-flops and go lay on the beach.

Just a thought, but when I pulled my EFI intake which had been installed exactly as Edelbrock specified using the Edelbrock gaskets and Edelbrock Gasgacinch on the gasket to head surface I found two places where the gasket had failed, creating one leak between two adjacent cylinders, and one runner to plenum leak. I bought a set of FelPro gaskets to put it back together, and they seemed to be much, much more substantial. I'll be using FelPro from now on.
