Instead of doing lots of new threads asking this and that I thought it best to start my own dedicated thread :D
Hopefully some of you will read it and help me out as I'm pretty cluesless without you lol!

Anyway first question, pretty easy one to start with probably.

Will this intake manifold fit my 1977 360 small block?

And will this Holley 4bbl 650cfm fit that intake?

Still haven't sorted my flatspot issue with my 2bbl so thinking of maybe just going straight for the 4bbl.

Thanks in advance!!!! ;)

Yes that intake will physically fit your engine but it's quite tall so might not fit under the bonnet without a drop base air cleaner. The carb would fit too but I would choose a non spreadbore and go for a 600 Vac. sec. or preferably a double pumper for maximum tunability. If you were in no mad rush, I do have a Weiand X-Cellerator intake (low rise, single plane) and a selection of Holleys I was planning to rebuild and sell at some point, really don't have the time to sort it right now though.

should go under ,I got an airgap on mine with a drop base air cleaner ,this ones the real deal and cheaper and not a Chinese copy,you shouldn't need the dual inlet bolt holes ,unless you have a magnum engine,id stick with blues offer,,don't forget you will get stung for duty and whatever charges they make up next

Ooh yes keep me in mind if you ever have a sort out! I'm in no particular rush providing I can get this thing running right for now!


Cheers for the advice peeps!
