Need help quick

[v8jeeptj]

In the middle of replacing my IP. I just opened the intake gaskets and the new ones do not have the metal block off that covers up the hole for the emissions. I think it is a mater of a J code or C code motor. Can I still use these?

so your heads are not J code? It has been a couple years sense I have tore apart a 6.2, I thought that the J code engines did not have the cross over passages for the EGR like the C code engines did. I don't even think the intake would cover then up. Can you send a pic of what you have going on?


I did a little searching on line and its not 100% clear but I do see the tin covers on the J code..... I would say you NEED THEM. if there is a exhaust cross over port that tin acts like a head shield so the intake wont melt or warp.

Ok more research and the heads are the same just the intakes are different (I knew that about the intakes) It will seal the intake gasket but like I said you would like to have the cover but it should be fine with out the cover.

I can ask at the MVCSC meeting tonight, if you can wait that long. Otherwise send me an e-mail.

Thank you for all the quick responses. I decided to put the install off till this weekend and order the correct gasket.
