Frequently asked questions

What is the blanking plate used for?
The blanking plate closes off an unused port on the inlet manifold of the 3.5-litre V8 twin-carburettor petrol engine, maintaining the induction seal. It fits the Land Rover Defender and Range Rover Classic V8 twin-carb manifold.
Why does the manifold need a blanking plate?
The blanking plate seals a redundant port on the twin-carb V8 inlet manifold, preventing an air leak into the induction system. An unsealed port typically causes a weak mixture and poor idle, so the plate must be fitted and sealed correctly during a manifold rebuild.
Is this blanking plate still available?
This blanking plate is a genuine Land Rover part and is NLA (no longer available) once current stock is sold. If you're rebuilding a twin-carb V8 manifold, confirm you need this specific plate before ordering, as it won't be restocked.
