already searched, simple tbi intake question
I've spent 45 minutes searching now and haven't found anything but info aobut vortecs, and tbi and porting mods.
All I need to know is can I grind out a tbi intakes center bolts to go on OLDER style heads. I know this can be done on old intakes for newer heads, but i wasn't sure if there would be enough room to get teh bolts into the intake at a different angle...IIRC that was the whole reason they changed the angle, those bolts suck on a spreadbore carb intake and the TBI intakes center area actually looks closer to the outer bolts.
