sorry bout getting back to ya so late  I was trying to get that darn mustang 
setup with the big block mopar engine.. whew.. bent the devil outa that 
stang.. but it sure do crank out the power now..!now to find a hood that'll 
hide all of the mopar.. (G)
I've found that for most thermoquads that if they are the smaller ones then 
usually between the umm (plastic/whatever the darn stuff is called nowadays) 
there's a small leak at the front right barrel straight to the outside 
air..had about 6 of the samller thermo's air seep in that area..the BIG 
thermo leaks at the back  and to (usually) fix it ya should get it milled 
flat again.. seems like the Larger the thermoquad the further back the leak 
goes..
