Intake Manifold Information
These manifolds for Big Block Chevys are a worthy companion to our phenomenally successful single plane small block racing manifold. Designed for serious performance big block applications, they feature nitrous bosses, dual distributor holddowns, four corner water ports, and are available for both rectangular or oval port cylinder heads. Rectangular port size at the gasket flange is 1.69-inches wide by 2.31-inches tall, which can be opened up to match the gasket and/or larger port cylinder heads.
Runner size is effective for 468 to 540 cid engines.
Intake Manifold Gasket Information
PCE intake manifold gaskets have Printoseal construction, which puts beads of special elastomers around the ports for extra sealing power. They also feature a non-metallic, rubber-fiber base material that resists gasoline and alcohol, while allowing engine builders to precision-trim around the intake ports.
Cylinder Heads Suggested Parts
Head Gaskets
Due to the wide combustion chamber needed to fit around the large 2.250/ 1.880_ valves, we recommend our PCE348.1004 MLS head gaskets. These gaskets are .041_ thick, and fit bore sizes as large as 4.540_ on all Mark IV and VI blocks, as well as aftermarket blocks. Felpro 1017 gaskets will also work with these head/ block combos. To install our BBC heads on Mark V blocks, you will need to use our SM5233L and SM5233R Elite Series MLS head gaskets. Alternatively, you can use Victor Reinz # 4918(R) & #4923(L) head gaskets on Mark V blocks with our heads.
Spark Plugs
Our heads require the use of 14mm. x 3/4_ reach 5/8_ hex gasket seat sparkplugs. Some recommended plugs are; NGK BCPR6ES or R5671A-7, Champion RC12YC, Autolite AR3923 or AR3924. Remember these are for mild street engines. Higher compression or boost requires colder sparkplugs!
Head Bolts / Studs
Due to the raised (+.625_) exhaust port location on our heads, +.100_ longer bolts / studs are needed next to each port. Use our PCE279.1005 head stud Kit. ARP #135-3703 12pt. Head bolts, and #235-4303 Head studs work too. If you already have a standard BBC head stud kit and are just looking for the 8 +.100_ studs, use our PCE279.1006 or ARP # 235-4306. These heads should be torqued to 65ft.lbs. using high pressure moly lube or 70ft.lbs. using 30wt. oil.
Please consult your fastener manufacturer for their specific recommended torque values.
Exhaust Gaskets
Our BBC heads utilize a 1.88_ x 1.88_ square exhaust port. This exhaust port requires specific gaskets. Our PCE355.1003 gaskets are made of re-useable copper, or if you prefer paper, use our pn# SM5123. Felpro also offers gaskets that work with our heads as # 1410.
