350 to 305 intake manifold

Will an intake manifold from a 1974 truck with a 350 fit on a 305 TBI for an '89 IROC-Z Camaro? Thank you for your help.

The center bolt angle won't match, but it can be made to work.

Any advice on how to make it work? I just bought a 89 in the process of being converted to carb... intake manifold came with it for free, wondering if it can be done easily enough

You'd need to slot the bolt holes in the intake and use angled washers. Even still, for as meager as a stock 75 intake is, I'd just find another intake.

Re: 350 to 305 intake manifold

ok... sounds like getting a new intake is a good idea. I've purchased a Holley 4165 double pumper carb, and like I said before, the engine is a 305 tbi in an 89 camaro... any advice on what type of intake to buy?
