Intake Manifold
Seals - Intake to Heads
| Intake to Head - Hardware History. 1) | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1957-78 | had the exact same port sealing machining, heads and manifolds | These use the O-rings. |
| 1979 | is confusing because it had the o-ring machining but | These use the rubber bands. |
| 1980-later | had the “o-ring delete” machining. | These use the rubber bands. |
| 1979 models could retro fit 78-earlier interface mechanisms as a bolt on mod. | ||
| 1980-later models needed the heads to be machined for reverting to the straight up o-ring seals. | ||
