Default stock intake info

Can anybody tell me if the 5.8 intake manifold and the 5.0 intake is the same or is it different in any way?

no 351 intake = wider for a taller deck

didn't realize that engine was wider seems like a lot of things I read on the net about them make it sound as if you can pretty much swap just about any part between these 2 engines

you can use the heads,cam,and pistons iirc,but because of the taller deck height of the 351 the intake is wider

just like your previous post, bore is the same, but the deck is a little taller, but as you probably do know, stroke was different.

pistons don't change stroke as far as i know. The lower intakes are wider for 351s but the upper could be the same, that's how the GT40 intakes are.
