ka24e coolant passages

[schyawn]

Anyone know anything about blocking the supposed coolant passages in the intake manifold/throttle body on a KA24E? I've read that it has been done on a couple websites, but don't know how to start. My FSM has no detail of the passages. Removing/blocking them would make a CAI more effective, no?

You know if you're going to block off the passage from the intake manifold connecting to the cylinder head, then your coolant from the engine will not go to your radiator. I have 2 engines(KA24E), one engine is stock for smogging and is in the car, and one for BUILT race engine and is in my room, all the parts are out.
