Default 72 mach-1. intake ????

I have a 72 Mach-1 with a 302, I had been given a edelbrock performer 289 manifold off of a 66 mustang, will this work/fit my 302?

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought it would as well, just wanted to make sure before I started getting ready for the project.

yeah good to go make sure to get some rtv and use that instead of the end seals and also a little around each water port.


make sure to follow the proper bolt tightening sequence to keep from warping the maifold

Thanks guys. I still need to get a carb. and I am thinking of some new heads and cam. First need to do a compression test. I am thinking 600 cfm. and possibly edelbrock aluminum heads, not sure of what cam but will inquire on lift duration when I have the cash for that.
