Exhuast Crossover??

I am going to be putting the intake manifold back on the engine in a few days and was thinking about using the Fel-Pro gaskets that block off the exhuast crossover will this cause any cold weather problems? I have a manual choke.

Also that mainfold kit does not come with a valley pan is this a problem?

Exhaust gas crossover in the intake manifold is a great help for warmup on a carburated motor. Make sure the heat riser in the exhaust pipe is working properly.

As long as it will not create dirvability problems in the winter once the engine is warmed up I would like to block it off.

I don't have a heat riser valve in my exhaust system.
