Re: Help me
Bolt on deal, these came with both and accs should bolt in the same place. Goes without saying you need a 4 barrel carb now, though.

Re: Help me
1967 had a closed PCV (positive crankcase vent.) and no holes in the valve covers. Make sure your new intake doesn't cover the vent opening at the back of the block. Currently connects with a rubber hose and PCV valve. to the back of your carb.
1967 also had oil fill in the manifold. Either find a manifold with a port that can be machined out, or replace (drill) one of your valve covers to have an oil fill.

Re: Help me
Welcome to the board.
The only thing I would add to the above statements is to make sure you mark the position of the dizzy ON THE FIREWALL before you pull it out. It'll save you alot of time on re-install.
