6 pack installation
« on: April 03, 2007 - 09:25:13 AM »
I recently found a pretty much new six pack my father had laying on a shelf in our office, and i decided to put it to some good use and throw it on my cuda. So my question is, How much of a pain in the ass is it going to install and what all would be required? Does it take a different intake gasket or just a regular one? All the throttle linkage is there so thats a plus.

assuming it is a big block/ 440  system use the 1215 FelPro intake gasket set & do up the 8 bolts that hold the intake down

if it is a rare 383/400 low deck use the 1214 intake gasket
if it is a small block system you will have to drain the coolant & change the gaskets , definatly a more difficult install

doesn`t look like a small block system , no end rails on the manifold to seal to the block

It's for a big block. There is no location for the thermostat housing on that one in the front of the intake.
