    351C intake gasket problems

    With the tin on the manifold there is not going to be that much movement in the tin to give a real good seal. If i went with composite port seal why bother with the tin at all? :shrug:

    351C intake gasket problems

    No it's a 4v intake for 4v heads. the port size is a perfect match. The gasket matches the port size and bolt pattern as it is a large hole not the oblong port of a 2v. but when I lay the gasket on the upsidedown manifold, the tin gasket edges do not cover what would be the upper edge of the...

    carb linkage question

    There should be a lever on the bottom of the throttle link. follow it from the carb to the firewall and down. this should have a cable about 8ins hooked to it going to your trans, attached to a lever with a spring holding it back. So when you mash the gas, the top of the linkage moves...
