This will effect many cars including Mopar 383 with Chevy intakes, Ford FE with 351C intakes and AMC with Mopar intakes running spacers to fit these intakes.

Mopar 383’s with Chevy intakes???? Shouldn’t Mopars run Mopar intakes? Shouldn’t Fords run Ford intakes? How many Chevys run Mopar or Ford intakes? Doesn’t Edelbrock make intakes for Ford and Mopar??? In Super Stock, isn’t the engine combination supposed to match the make of the car? If it didn’t before, I guess it does now, huh!!!
