Small block W7.8.9 intake any one put on w2/w5???

Any information would be helpful thank you Mopar or no car

A W7-8-9 uses a dry intake.. meaning it doesnt
have water in it.. W2 and W5 are wet intakes
that have water in a couple of ports.. I have
never tried to put a W7-8-9 on a w2-5.. can it
be done.. yes with some work
EDIT
Also the W-7-8-9 use a valley pan and the W2-5
dont..they have a built in valley pan

Somewhere I remember seeing a W5 build with a W9 intake on the tall deck

Triple threat on here had a tall deck r3 block, and a 420 intake on brodix head.

Really I hope he sees this post

Can it be done.. yes.. its just a matter of pluming
in a few water points

That's what I was thinking Cant be too hard should I cross over the block or bring everything to the Remote thermostat housing

You'll need to use such a thermo stat housing. Often I see the unit welded at the front of the engine to the valley plate.

R3 block, Brodix B1-MC heads, Ritter 420 intake. Billet valley tray with a thermostat housing. Heads were welded and tapped for the water lines. I can't claim to have created this, I bought the engine already together. Ran it like this for 3 seasons before a piston let go and I parted it out.

Right on thanks for the input any leftover parts for sale ? What was the displacement of the motor and was it a tall deck or a short deck R3

Tall deck R3. The intake was supposedly the first ever casting ritter did, so it was blank for bolt holes and such which might of helped this situation.

No parts left, I sold the entire top end for a song about a year ago.

W5dart66 had a set of w5 heads that had a 598 intake .... Never ran it.... Sold the heads.... I believe Ryan Johnson built a motor with that heads and intake but not 100% sure.

It's not rocket science, just do it

Jeff Allison has had valley plates made in the past, perhaps contact him.

Records aren't set doing whatever everyone else is doing.

If you're doing it yourself, take the plunge

If you're getting someone to do it for you, get your cheque book out

I talk to Ryan from shady Dell he told me the correct intake to put on a set of W5s on a tall deck was a short deck W9 I have an intake for sale Now
