64 Cuda original 273 intake . Is there a way to defer some of the heat in the two areas left and right of the carb., without affecting warm up idle It fried my nice paint job in those two spots ?
No. The intake is original, what about everything else? All OE intakes do that in general so, you can only minimize what's inevitable by making sure Your timing isn't late, riser
valve isn't stuck & working correctly, A/F mix isn't off,etc. Felpro's started including "partial" block-off gaskets in their intake sets, which basically had a roughly 1/8" hole
in the crossover port section, hmmm late 70's early 80's I guess. Haven't checked on the stk. intake only set lately, but that would be the only compromise that would keep
the warm-up/choke operation acceptable. Otherwise, what 72Dart6pack said, I've done that too. But cold warm up will suck.
