I am just trying to get a general idea if i am correct. In order to get the 2.3l HO manifold to fit i simply need to purchase a 2.4L Intake manifold flange(Gasket) and get it welded onto the HO Manifold?
weld? ..perhaps...is that the easiest way??? god no...."easiest" way is to simply slot a coulple of the holes on the mani and itll bolt right up..using the 2.3 gasket of course....but theres more to it than simply getting a mani and putting it on...i suggest you do your research.........and use the LO mani, not the HO one
good luck finding a 2.4L intake manifold flange
GMR has got nothing on this
there is the fontana adapter flange. this will effectively port match the manifold to the head. this is what i used, and the install was Very easy. just had to undo the manifold a time or two to get her to seal right. thats all.
There is a lot of work involved in modding a 2.3 manifold to work on a 2.4 the right way.
I've fontana adapter flange in person and thought it was pretty @!#$ty.

^^ there are a couple version of the flange.
But yeah,
Simply 'shape matching' the ports on the HO mani doesn't fully do it.
