Intake Heat Crossover Question

["Dennis C." <dennis.2914@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm in the process of replacing the intake manifold on my 383 and when I 
opened the intake pan box it had open heat crossover ports.  I'm sure I 
ordered a pan with closed crossover ports, I guess I made a mistake 
placing the order.

I have an old Edelbrock dual plane manifold that has the heat crossover 
in the manifold.

Is there any reason not to use the pan I have or should I order the one 
with the heat crossover blocked?

I have the heat riser locked open and live in Arizona where I don't 
think I need any extra heat in the manifold.

Thank
Dennis C.
