Offenhauser Intakes.... Need input ASAP...

[83turbomon]

hey I found a guy that has some offenhauser v6 intakes for sale. Ill post some pics of them, but they are terrible pics. Will these work with the high flow heads and overall work with the engine? 75 bucks per intake.

The blue colored one is a stock 4.1 intake and the other is a low port design. Sorry but it's a no go.

the 4.1 would work but will need a lot of modification. Look up my thread on modifications to the 4.1 intake.

A 4.1 intake is for the high port head and can be made to work on a set of low ports but you have to do some welding to make it fit.

All 4.1 heads are high ports. Low ports were used on 3.8's through 1978. The 4.1 came out in 1980-84.

I highly recommend sticking with the one you have. The one that has the hole in the middle that the turbo bolts to.

Rich is still using the stock intake kid. Stick with what you've got for now. It can be upgraded after you get the d@mn thing running right!

GOod news i got a storage space for the car... NOW WORK can finally be started.

Yep, stock intake. The motor is stock and original. Just some bolt-ons, like a fuel pump, cap/rotor/wires, etc.

You can go very far with stock set up. A boost gauge and knock gauge will get you farther than anything else.
