intake manifold
I have a 66 F250 WITH A 352. Yesterday a guy gave me a old edsel. there is an intake for an FE block and a brand new 4brl
carb.my question is, will a manifold from a 58 edsel fit my 66 352? thanks LaMar.

LaMar, as far as I know all the FEs are made the same, so it should work. Does the car have a 330 or a 352? just curous.
If I have mis stated someone will come along in a min. with the correction.

LaMar,
John is probably right ( he usually is ) but something keeps buzzing in my head about that swap. Can't pin it down. Ask the folks at the FE forum on this site, just to be sure, before you start tearing things apart.

I believe the manifold will fit ok but you'll have the hole for the road draft tube at the back. Did you get those cool "Edsel 400" valve covers with the motor? The 361 had them.

Had several Edsels, mostly '58 models, great cars. The manifolds will work, carb too. My 58s had automatic choke, but conversion to your '66 shouldn't be a problem. P.S. I am looking for a front clip for a 58 Edsel, (wagon only) and other parts. Email me if you plan to part it out.. jta1986(No Email Addresses In Posts!)
