heat shield gasket double stack

[19dabeast85]

I just had the random idea of double stacking two intake manifold heat shield gaskets. Granted longer studs would be needed, I wonder if it would help air temps decrease significantly more than just one??

discuss...

i think one will get er done.

i don't think that extra gasket would really alleviate virtually any heat at all really. not by a substantial amount anyways...

then you are only shielding from something thats supposedly already cool.

im still a naysayer on bisi's estimate of 7hp on a stock f, and he is yet to prove it.

honestly, i think it does nothing...but its reuseable which is good by me.

using 2 gaskets may cause an air/vacuum leak...

obviously he would seal it...but still pointless to me.

i doubt sealing both will prevent it from leaking...or eventually leak...

I'm currently have one and the intake manifold still stays hot as a firecracker after a long run. The header probably contributes much to that though...
