    Painting intake manifold, after installation?

    Hey folks... I installed a new Edelbrock intake manifold and carb a few months ago. I didn't paint it before I put it on, because it looked awesome. Well....it now looks like poop. Is there anything wrong with my painting it now that it's in the boat?

    Help choosing proper intake manifold

    Good Morning, My boat has a 96 350 in it. It orginially came with a 2bbl carb, that has gone to the way side. Rather than spending more time diagnosing its issues, I'm changing it over to a 4bbl. I have the carb, but now need an intake manifold. Any advice on which intake to purchase? Aluminum...
