Topic: Intake manifolds

  Hello members! I am working on a 35 ford 5 window that will have a 255 installed. I noticed that the intake manifold has fewer bolts mounting it than the 95 block has. I have two aftermarket aluminum manifolds and one has more holes than the other. Will they both fit on the 255?

  If your aftermarket aluminum intake manifolds are for 3rd generation Flathead V-8's, they will fit. The 3rd generation manifolds can be identified by their mounts for the road draft tubes used for the crankcase ventilation system.

  Will the extra bolt holes in the manifold just seal off on the intake deck?

  Yes.
