Manifold Mill

[old guys rule]

Anyone out there know if an Edelbrock Performer manifold 4 a 440 can be milled down to fit a 383?

If anyone knows that, it’ll be here. Never thought to do that

Maybe this thread will give you an answer. General idea is that the 440 intake is too wide. But you can read for yourself.

Simple answer. No, it cant.

Why not spend the $ to just buy the correct manifold?

Here is a link to a treasure trove of mopar parts in your area. Apparently this guy has TONS of mopar stuff.

You'd mill away pretty much the entire sealing rail on both sides.

No.

You'd mill away pretty much the entire sealing rail on both sides.

....and im betting the machine shop bill would be bigger than the price of the right manifold.
