The Sonoramic Commando Intake?
Many vehicles have coolant through the intake. Many modern 4 whangers do, at least until EFI came along
And, the heavy duty truck (Mopar) engines do also
Below is a 413-3, used in heavy trucks and motor homes. There's a lot of difference in the top end of these between a light truck / car RB engine
The heads and intake have coolant through them instead of exhaust for carb heat. Hard to see, but if you look right in the upper center of the exhaust manifold, directly to the right of the chain and above the hook, there's a temperature sender, a LIQUID temperature sender screwed in there
In some ways, this would be "no worse" a problem to find, than if you had EXHAUST type heat crossover. A crack between the exhaust and intake could drive ya nuts for awhile............this was exactly how the very early (72?) EGR setups were done..........jets (orifices) in the bottom of the intake into the exhaust................
