I see three gaps there
What up HT I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer to and I know you guys on here are very knowledgeable.im putting together a jdm b20 it's not in the car yet just in my garage..the b20 i got is the one with the P8R head I bout an ls intake manifold the gasket and pattern all match up except three of the ports on the bottom of the manifold show what believe way too big of gaps..can I not use that ls manifold on the p8r?.if not can anyone tell me which is the one I need?.im new to this so if it's been covered my apologies.i have searched and can't find the answer..the answers I've found keep pointing to use the ls manifold but it doesn't seem right.

If you are referring to the three shadowed areas at the peak of each arch... centered between the ports, it is nothing to worry about. Torque the intake manifold nuts to spec and run it.

Is that how is supposed to be?just seems like air would leak out like crazy you would thinks it would b all covered..is there another intake I can use that would cover those gaps?like maybe skunk2 or blox etc?
