I've seen it done & it works




Honestly . If you bushed the intake holes with longer
bushings/dowels , etc.. prior to Drilling .....
This would work good , wouldt it

how do you attach your intake manifold jig onto the magnum head?

so you'll need to weld something onto the intake manifold to interface with the intake bolt holes....

If I remember correctly, the 1st one (that got to travel) was alinged by some type of L-bracket, and clamped in place with large C-clamps.
Wouldn't be hard to install a couple of locating pins that lined up with existing holes in head, to make sure was in correct place before drilling. We have quite a few people that are interested in this it seems. I'm still interested in it!

Anyone make any progress on this? If not, I'm going to the junkyard this weekend to snag an old LA head/manifold. Anyone in the N. Chicago area have a spare intake/head they could loan me for the cause?

Does anyone know the precise angle that the holes are in relation to the intake face for LA bolt-holes?

I believe it's 7°.


Parts I seek: driver doorpanel, 65 Sport Fury, prefer black, needs to be 7-8 on 10 scale, might buy set 16" x 6" Dodge truck wheel(s), from early 70s?, takes 9" dogdish - need for a research job so cheaper is better. 69-73 C-body caliper brackets and/or splashields Send a PM.
