    Do the fast blown alky guys still run valve seals? I've been thinking of throwing mine away, what do you think?

    If you do run them, who's do you use?

    Since the intake runners are pressurized by the blower and there is no vacuum you don't need guide seals.

    That was my thoughts, just wanted to see what other people were doing.

    Thanks

    Never ran then on a blown motor. Never saw the need. I'd say, leave them in the shop. :)

    seals would just be another thing to go wrong...not needed for the application
