Re: Can you reverse the intake manifold?

Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm doing a street rod so I'll be running aftermarket gauges. The piece you showed a pic of....I assume that bolts onto the oil pan. Is that a piece that can be bought. I think mine just has a flat piece of metal on the oil pan above the filter. I bought the H3 oil pan by the way.

I just read that you could put a 90 degree elbow on the block and screw the switch to that to clear the throttle body. Do you see any issues with that?

Oh, And I am planning to use a frame mounted street rod brake booster set up so I won't have any space issues with the filler cap if I flip the valve covers. I think the only reason I was thinking of flipping the valve covers was to simplify the vacuum line routing. Basically flip everything attached to the intake.

Thanks again,
