Right intake, Right Heads...But they dont fit together!?!
Ok i got some 906 casting heads for my 305 tbi motor..got them milled down 30..then i got an edelbrock performer intake for a 99 chevy tahoe 350 to match up (since thats where the heads came from). Put the gaskets on a little while ago and then I just went to put the intake on and its got a good 3/4 of an inch on each side before it even covers the whole head!!! What the hell is going on? And I know the intake should fit because all those performer intakes fit sbc engines in general. Somebody please help

nevermind figured it out..i guess summit doesnt clarify what years the intakes fit..i got a 2101 "Fits SBC" is what it says but apparently that doesnt apply to 87 and up

Who told you that manifold is for a 99 Tahoe?
"Fits SBC" applies fine, but you still have to make sure that it matches your heads.

I'm out of the loop on some of the newer stuff, but wouldnt a 99 Tahoe be a vortec motor?
