I've got a question concerning my intake. I've noticed that 2 of the
mounting holes are craked. This is an aluminium intake on a BB. Don't
know if they are leaking but I was planning on removing the intake. Do
I get these points welded ?

You can try to get it welded,take it to somebody that knows what they are doing,while you are there have him check it over good,make sure there are no other cracks,it might be warped ,if so you will probably have to replace it

I agree with Ron. Personally I would replace it. If its cracked now
whats going to keep it from cracking again? Sounds like its either old
and brittle or was over torqued. I have Edlebrock low rise
on mine however mines a S/B. I went with low rise so I didn't have to
change the hood. I definatly noticed the diffrence from stock. You
either have to go with electric choke or like me, try to dial in the
stove pipe. Summitt has a pretty good price on intakes. Make sure you
don't spend as much repairing as you would replacing. Terry
