Ok so I am having a little issue. I bought this intake and have been porting it while the heads where at the machinist. I picked them up yesterday and started back on the lower. I noticed that the lower only has one port but both heads have one. I know it is for emissions but am wondering why intake only has the one. Will this cause problems?

The EGR pulls from just one head. Both are drilled to allow the heads to be left's or rights. Use the block off supplied with the intake gasket set on the head that doesn't have a corresponding hole in the intake manifold. AFR recommends intake port matching to the head port rather than port matching to a gasket.
