swirl control valve delete questions

[JDmisaac]

so i've read the posts on here about deleting this but it didn't state these things
i've pulled all the secondary butterflies out and the rod out now i'm at a standstill about what to do with the holes that the rod ran through but i figured the outer hole where the rod inserted into the manifold would cause a vacuum leak and each side of each runner where the rod ran through would cause turbulence between the runners so do i need to jb weld each hole off or any other suggestion on this pics would be great but either way do fill me in.




thanks in advance

Isaac, when I deleted the emissions on my 93, I left the rod in for the SCV. If you're planning on removing the rod, I'd suggest getting those through-holes welded up. Also, I wouldn't be too comfortable with JB weld being on the inside of my engine, I don't know about you. Go ahead and take it to a shop if you don't have a tig.

I used JB weld on the outer hole. It works like a champ. I don't think the inner holes matter that much. Turbulence on the intake is good for mixing fuel and air.
