Re: [Amc-list] 2 bbl intake

I picked up a homemade aluminum adapter for the Renix intake to bolt a MC2100 to it from Craig's list for $10. (and one for the MC2100 to BBD intake)

Adapting the carb'd intake to the 4.0L head is not realy hard if you do it before you put the head on.
Frank has the plates I made for a Clifford intake.
I used a bow for a boat cover to make mine as it is a hard aluminum.
Doing it without the head being installed makes it easy to see the port alignment.
what I did was sit the intake on top of the dowells in the head, then used a diegrinder to remove material till the port ceilings lined up. That kept the intake as high as possible. Front to rear movement was managed by the exhaust. On that intake I found best alignment by puling the intake forward as far as it would go.
  I also installed grade 8 studs into the head so I did not risk damaging the threads in the head when I tightened the whole thing up. 
   Like I said before it sealed fine, no leaks at all. The amc intake should be pretty easy to mount up too.
