Default Intake question?
What is the purpose of the removable plugs on the bottom of the intake?

Been awhile but I believe those were for casting the EGR/IAC plenum and for access to drill the IAC distribution holes in the bottom of each intake port.

Thanks, you wouldn't happen to know what they would be torqued to? This is a new GM intake and they're just finger tight.

Snug enough where they don't fall out.

and don't leak. Add a dab of thread sealant to them.
