monte70car Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Been looking around on Craigslist lately to see if there is anything close by to build from. I've checked a place that powernation had picked up an LS motor from and they want $2300 for a rebuilt stock motor which doesn't sound bad. On Craigslist I've come across a 69 396 325hp motor for $500 and a gen 6 454 for $500 both are long blocks. If I pick up the gen 6 454 would my intake work on the motor? I know the timing chain cover is different from a mark IV to a gen 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorDog72 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Im not positive, but I believe the gen 6 block is a tall-deck engine. Intake manifolds are different from a standard to a tall deck 454 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam (Bones) Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 a gen IV block is not a tall deck and yes a mark IV intake will fit on a gen VI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorDog72 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Sam is right. I must have been thinking of the Gen 7 8.1L engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
