i have a 74 chevy luv, with a toasted carb. i bought a Webber from the wrecking yard but it wont mount up. its off by a quarter inch. so will a 76 intake manifold mount up to the 74 if they both have the same 1.8L??

check the bolt pattern and if they match up. you'll need a gasket anyhow so get that and put it to the 76

ONE OF THEM DEALS WHERE YOU SNATCH YOURS OFF AND COMPARE

MANY TIMES YOUR LOCAL AUTO MACHINE SHOP GUY WILL KNOW FROM MEGA EXPERIENCE, OR MAY EVEN HAVE ONE LIKE YOURS IN THE SCRAP PILE (SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO SNATCH YOURS OFF)

WITH THE WAY YOUR QUESTION WAS WORDED, I "ASSUMED" THE MISSION AT HAND WAS TO GET THE WEBER TO FIT (PRESENT OR OTHER MANIFOLD)

SORRY!

ONCE YOU GET IT ON

PLEASE DO TELL ME HOW YOU HAVE JETTED THAT PUPPY AND FOR WHAT KINDA DRIVING

my memory isnt' that good on a almost 40 yr old vehicle so do what cj said rip yours off and match it up. It should be the same as it's only a two year difference.
