Intake to TB seal? (pics)
Intake to TB seal? (pics) Hey guys, I'm buttoning up my long boosted build on my C5 and I noticed last night there is no way to seal the LS2 throttle body to my Holley hi-ram intake?
Obviously this would be a huge boost leak?
Let me know what everyone is doing to seal this - Thanks!

So, all bolted together, there is that much gap between the intake and TB??
Make a longer intake tube that is leading into the front of the TB then you can shift the TB back. Get a sheet of gasket material and trace/cut one out by hand.

I was gonna say....given these motors and what people do to them, slim chance you were doing something "custom" in which case a part didn't already exist.
You boosted your motor and got hung up on a simple gasket issue?? I hope your motor stays together LOL
