For reasons unimportant to this particular question, I'm going to be using an MR gimbal housing from a V-8 with my 470.
The question is: what do I do with those two extra exhaust ports? My original had the ports but they were dead-ends - the holes on the outside of the gimbal housing were drilled through to the main exhaust port. So there was a pressure release but it went from the main port. Do I just block them off and use an exhaust tube in place of the original bellows? Block them and drill through the main port? Block them and not worry about it? Anyone with any experience with this topic, I'd love to have your input.
