Ok I have a 1959 Imperial dual 4bbl intake on my 383 in my cuda. I just bought a 440 to rebuild and was wondering if there is anyway to make that intake work on the 440 (the only reason is because i think its awesome) So do they make spacers or anything???


For the absolute best powder coating go to J.I.T powder coating, contact infomation is in my personal profile..

the spacers made for the MP stage 6 heads might work

Thought the 59 motors were RB's Anyway, there use to be spacers to do this swap, b intake on a RB, but I don't know if they are still avalible. I remember seeing them from Direct Connection many moons ago.
I also remember spacers to run RB distributors in B engines, but haven't seen those in a while either.

I read an article many years ago about taking wood and making spacers to put B intakes on an RB engine. Just figure out what thickness you need and make them, unless you find them already premade.

Just the 59 383's were RB's.


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
