I'm, naturally aware of the design and have stainless steel spacers instead of using dimples. I'm not limiting the amount of air flow. Actually a lot of people are going to cold air input instead as a lot of new cars are doing. I also did them for use for the ones that want to stay with the older original. I also made them because people couldn't find them and convenience of ordering several items from one vendor instead of 1 ea from many.

Just a question about your version, how are you providing spacing between the top of the manifold and the inside of the heat stove? The original stove had dimples in the steel to create the gap between the manifold and the heat stove. We decided to use brass spacers. Without a gap between the top of the manifold and the heat stove, you limit air flow around the manifold and into the engine.
