# B12480203 spreadbore primary 1 7/16ths secondary2 1/4". Is this a BUICK intake manifold ? What year and motor(s). pulling my hair owt trying to find owt. Thanx in advance if you've helped. I kinda remembered someone telling me it was for the 430c.i. It weighs a ton.

Is there an aluminium intake that gives better performanc than than the oem high rise, a*r gap,long runners straight into the head. This seems like a good performance intake from the performance guys at Buick.

455 headers give GSCA a look. When they get 100 orders, they'll have them made up by Tube Technology in Corona, CA. Some times they have a left over set or somebody just wants to sell theirs.

I'm thinking I'd like to put the 215 alum. V8 in my 67 Morris Minor 2dr Saloon, rather than one of my 455's which would be a lot more work. Anyone recommend a source where I might aquire said 215? I know if there's enough will & lots of money, just about any motor can be adapted to most any...

Is anyone out there using this manifold? Other than cool effect, is it a performance advantage better than a 4bbl? Is it more desirable than dual quads for performance

on my 67SKY GS400 I used same motor mounts to install 70 455. Had to drill new holes in center of cross member for the TH400. Holes were already in frame rails to locate for the short tail shaft. Hope this helps. I'm no pro but I have done almost all the work on my cars and trucks starting with...

Found a couple of good looking Thermoquads at my local wrecking yard. I've never heard anything on using these on a BBB. I've only heard that they can be a good performance carb. Anyone care to share their experience/expertise ? Luv this site. So helpful and friendly. I like being associated...

what wires do I connect my stereo's red,orange,and blue wires to? Thought I knew. Worked in previous installation. Had a two page diagram of electrical system. Went to house to answer phone and came back to the car and the wind spirited off one of the pages. Found the one page about 75ft. away...

low oil press. A sincere Thanks to the replies. I switched the points to Petronics in the cap, as soon as I got the car home. Set the timing @ about 4 degrees btdc with vacuum pluged. At the same time I replaced the vacuum advance modulator. The old did nothing. The new pulls in a lot of...

AS i PREVIOUSLY STATED:36-37lbs max. 15lbs. or a little less @ idle. Frwy cruise 30lbs. 600cfm edelbrock, stock intake. Zeems to be pretty well tuned for the 425. Runs really strong. Have a 600cfm Holley I want to try. Oh, yeah, this is on top of 3/4" aluminium spacer that is spread bore. Made a...

I have a 64 Riv w/a supposed "recent motor rebuild/overhaul".That's all the clown that sold it to me could tell me. I put an Edelbroc 600cfm vac 2ndaries on it's stock intake,tuned it up,Pertronics ignition,adjusted the shifter to go into low,put the switch pitch on a toggle switch.Car runs...

I hooked mine up to a toggle switch mounted on underside of dash, left of steering wheel by where the fuse block access door is. Ran a 10gauge wire to a red similar gauge wire hot at all times. If you run in high stall much, for sure you'll need supplimental trans cooler, which is always a good...
