BB TBI on a 3074 intake

[Chewy1576]

I bought a 1" TBI spacer with the same footprint for the BB TB. Came with longer mounting bolts and new gaskets for top and bottom. It sealed just fine.

Stew, I took it over to my local machine shop that did the motor for me and had him bore it out to 2.060.
It took less than a 1/2 hour and he did it on the bridge port..Best part is he didn’t charge me...

You had your 3740 intake bored out? I've heard that it's a 50/50 chance of hitting the water jackets around the throttle bores.

There’s no water around the bores it is in the floor of the intake though

Ahhh...my plate was an adapter and not so much a spacer. I never ever purchased a spacer so that thought never crossed my mind.
