Holley on half BP, only one issue!

[TS87FC3S]

Ok so my intake has individual runner but i found this little issue

in red, the baseplate connects the primarys and secondarys which i cant have,

But i need to keep this

and this seperate

Any way i can do that without messing up how the carb functions?

those will not be an issue. if this was once on the car in ur sig(stock 12a), it's probably not going to work on a half bridge without some rejetting at least.

re-jetting i know will have to happen, not an issue, i just know on a half BP the primary and secondrys cannot connect to each other and this shows them connecting in a small manner but it is still present, just trying to figure out if this is going to affect idle quality or what

the hole in question is for the hot air choke blocking secondaries is no issue as long as primarys still go to it

check with sam(bad83) on rx7club. he's ran holleys on bp before.

im running a 650cfm holley on my factory 12a with 167,000 original miles on it lmao still runs mint!

I've never had an issue running those on a half bridge. If anything having that red port open slightly to all allows some movement of mixture from the primaries over into that runner. From what I see that is not a 4 corner idle carb so if it completely blocked off it will have a dead spot when the butterflies open because the runner will be completely empty.
