I am looking for a four barrel intake manifold for a 1975-77 Buick 231.

PM me if you have one or can get one...

That one is designed for 79 and latter engines not sure if it will work on the 75 to 77 engines.

When Buick re-did the firing order to make the engine and "even fire" they also redesigned the heads with different ports and oil channels and such.

I saw this manifold before and determined it will not work.

I see Offy makes one but over 300 bucks in Summit. Keep an eye out for a used one. Also for the AMC 225 and buick 231.

Actually, I might have solved my dilemma of the oddfire engine manifold search.

I am getting a 1985 231 Turbo motor. This will be my winter project.

I saw that Offy manifold. I was thinking about getting it but without really being totally sure about application., i shied offf.

Then this turbo motor came available...

Just picked up the motor yesterday. Drove to south of the Cities to get it. Worth the trip!

As soon as I get it out of the back of my HHR Panel, I will post some pictures. I can't find my engine stand. Could have sworn I brought it from New York with me. Just might have to break down and buy one...
