Intake manifold
I am looking to change my 1953 ford v/8 to a dual carb manifold. All the manifolds I have looked at have 10 place for bolts. My manifold only has 7 bolts on either side. I don't understand.

Re: Intake manifold
The earlier engines used more bolts. The aftermarket manifolds are usually made to fit either engine. Cut some bolts off and stick them in the holes.

Re: Intake manifold
Yes, my 53 8BA has fewer intake bolts also.+
