Gene,

You'll need to change only the intake manifold...the intake port spacing is 
slightly wider on the late heads.  Need to find an early intake.  Cheaper 
than doin' another head.

List,

I'm preparing my new rebuilt engine for installation in my 6, but I may have
a problem. I'm installing a CC engine from 1969, but my intake and exhaust
manifolds are from my original 1973 engine. Will I have to replace the head
on the newly rebuilt engine with a later one for it to fit? I can't test fit
right now, since both the manoflds are out being painted and polished.
