intake manifold
just found a hole in my intake manifold on my 1994 7.3 IDI with factory turbo, and i was wondering if it was possible for a manifold from a non-turbo 7.3 would work or if i would have to find one from another 7.3 turbo, any help would be appreicated

The manifold has a hole on the back where your intake hat sits, thats where the cdr valve sits on na motors. My hypermax kit came with an expandable plug to plug it. And with that hole you aren't making any boost I'm assuming.

ATS didn't have a "plug" for that hole. Part of the pedestal design was a machined surface that fits flat against the hole. There is a groove for an o-ring to seal it. The Ford stock setup is almost identical to the ATS setup, soooo I'm confused at where your hole is.
Any chance you can get a picture? There is a drain hole for the valley pan in that general location, but it is smaller than a quarter.
