Re: Factory Aluminum Intake?
My cast iron intake has all of the emission controls hooked up on it with the maze of vacuum lines. My hope is to leave it all intact, including the old carb, and put it in the attic in case San Antonio decides to start doing emissions inspections before it becomes exempt.
I had not thought about corrosion being a problem with aluminum. I'll have to see how it looks. I have another cast iron intake also, but at first glance, it looks like it may be a little different from mine, especially around the EGR valve (which I would like to keep using). I guess I'll have to look at it a little closer, and see if it is the same. If not, I might just go pick one up at a junkyard. Surely they can't cost much...
When you say center bolts, are you talking about the intake manifold or the exhaust manifolds? I have already been told that the exhaust manifolds my not work with a 350. If they don't, I will probably go with some angled ram's horns.
