"I have a 454/330 mercruiser 1990, which bought the farm. I just picked up a new (rebuilt longblock). the question is this, the old motor had the large oval port heads, the new longblock has the small oval port heads. Can I use my old intake manifold (from large port heads on the new motor with the small ports? do i need some sort of adapter? which gasket would I use? Or do I need to get a new intake to match the new small port heads? thanks"
 
"You could go the other way ar

"You could go the other way around and get away with it, but not this way. You'll need to located a small port intake (which is more common, by the way).
