the cav 2.2 uses a modified gasket from the 2.0 gasket

we cut a chanel in it , so that the pcv port stays fuctional

havent put alot of miles on it yet , so not sure if the stick dip pops out , i know my friends redline does

ill have to let him know about it

 

SS SC Cobalt do you have any pics with the endplate installed along with the new surge tank? How long does it take to install?

 

Just thought I'd let everyone know, the intake manifold gasket is reusable. It says so in the GM tech website. Plus I reused mine and and didn't have any problems. Hell I hit 20 psi the other night, and that would impossible with a leaky intake manifold gasket

 

WEll anyone got this installed yet? Pictures pictures pictures!!

Blown 4-banger are you sayin you installed the new update intake manifold gasket and I use see a difference? Mine is on its way.

 

No I'm saying I re-used my stock gasket. It works fine.

 

Oh ok. I'm replacing mine tommarow with the updated gasket. I have boost getting by the gasket into the pcv system causing my crankcase pressure to pop my dipstick out.

 

Wow you blew the gasket with a 2.8" pulley!?!?

 

I think the dealer fucked up my intake manifold gasket because at 21k I had my head replace because of driver error(opps!) and when I got it back I would constantly blow the dipstick out of the tube until I replaced the O ring with a thicker one, but now this TSB came out which addreses this problem as a faulty intake manifold and now has this new improved manifold gasket.

 

man tired of reading lol . please some post pics and how to and >>sticky this shiit

 

no point in making this a sticky.... someone is holding out on pics and install

 

so do you hsve to make the brackets for the surge tank or can you buy them?

 

u have to fab them...

 

SS_SC_Cobalt,

You seem to be the most knowledgeable on the end plate install.
The only thing after reading the instructions, is building the air bleed line. It looks like it comes from the reservoir with the .040orfice and the press in fitting. Does that line just hang down or does it connect to some ware on the intake.

 

It will probably have to be welded or jb welded in place. I have a picture but can't figure out how to post it. Here is the link.
