what is this hole for on accel manifold?

on the accel manifold there is a threaded hold the comes in from the top on one side of the manifold? it has a hex plug in it. what is this for. the original manifold doesn't have this. it goes in to one of the ports for the runners.

Show a picture of the manifold hole you are talking about, and I'll tell you what it's for.

Nice car, by the way!

it looks like the cold start injector hole, but it looks a little small in the picture. That is the same place it is on the stock manifold though so I'm assuming thats what it is for.

Thats not cold start, thats where the fitting for the PCV hose hooks up. Cold start is down and to the left.

The other pic you posted looks like theres another hole up there I didnt see before. Thought you were referring to the one in the side near where the runner mounts up.

Never seen that one before.

Hole

That's just an access hole to the vacuum. After they drill it they plug it and the vacuum then goes to the PCV fitting from the manifold.
