In the attached photo they put blankoff plate over the side intake
ports. Do you fill the whole thing with JB Weld and do you do it before
or after installing the P-Port?

The differences in the size of the E shaft and alternator pulleys on the
Renesis engine  is going to spin the alternator well over 12,000 RPM, at
6000RPM cruise, unless a much larger pulley is installed on the
alternator. I put a 4 inch pulley on my O-320 alternator. H. Karibian

It does not matter when you do it but don't fill it flush
with the end housing wear surface. You need a bit of gap to equalize
the pressure across the rotor. If one side of the rotor has
higher pressure than the other side uneven wear occurs.
You can see the gap in this picture.
