Someone came along to that ad and told the seller this:

"Q: Your manifold will fit the head for a 216, 235, 261. The intake rings/ports are smaller for the 216, but they have rings/sleeves that are made to fit a 216 to a 235 or vice versa. You list the carb centers as 2 15/16 which is the larger base for 235, 261. The 216 carb center is 2 11/16. Finally the other difference is the heat box bolt centers, on the bottom of your intake manifold. You cannot mix and match an exhaust and intake 216 with a 235 or vice versa. Because, the heat box Intake to exhaust manifold stud spacing on the 216 is 2 1/8" and the Intake to exhaust manifold stud spacing on the 235 is 2 1/2" Feb-08-11
A: Hi, Many, many thanks for this most helpful information about the multi combinations of the Chevrolet 6 engine models and their bits and pieces. I will post your super information onin my sale description."


Drilling/tapping for the smaller carbs as well as machining the runners for 235/261's would have made it way more user friendly and as is it seems to be for neither? At least they got the linkage thing right and the rest can be corrected. A cool alternative if they actually get out there and compete with the Offy and Fenton.
