FE Intake Manifold Question
« on: June 12, 2018, 04:35:43 PM »
Has anyone ever milled out the head side of the pushrod tube, so that you can remove an FE intake manifold with out pulling the push rods?
it is hard to balance your check book with your testoserone level

I have seen an adapter that one can use a 351C intake on. The one I saw had a tunnel ram intake on it. Maybe someone knows more about them and can add in here.
