EVIL ENERGY Ford Small Block Dual Plane Intake Manifold

EVIL ENERGY Ford Small Block Dual Plane Intake Manifold

If your classic Ford 260, 289, 302, or 5.0L Windsor build feels lazy at low speed, has an aging factory-style intake, or needs a cleaner carburetor setup, the EVIL ENERGY Ford small block intake manifold gives builders a dual plane carburetor option for compatible SBF engines. Its 2000-5500 RPM range suits Mustang, Falcon, Cougar, F-Series, Bronco, cruiser, and restoration projects that need street-focused throttle response and low-to-mid RPM drivability.

This dual plane intake manifold is designed for compatible small block Ford carburetor builds where street manners, vacuum signal, and usable torque matter. It is a practical option for replacing older intake hardware, planning a carburetor intake manifold swap, or selecting a Ford 302 intake manifold for a classic SBF Windsor project.

Important: Always verify engine family, cylinder head configuration, intake bolt pattern, carburetor mounting pattern, intake gasket style, hood clearance, throttle linkage, fuel line routing, and port alignment before ordering. This manifold is intended for compatible SBF Windsor 260, 289, 302, and 5.0L engines and should not be assumed to fit 255, Boss 302, 351W, 351C, 351M, 400M, or unrelated Ford engine families.

Vehicle and Engine Fitment

This small block Ford intake manifold is designed for compatible SBF Windsor 260 4.3L, 289 4.7L, 302 5.0L, and 5.0L V8 applications. Common reference platforms include Ford Mustang, Falcon, Torino, Mercury Cougar, Mercury Capri, Ford F-Series, Bronco, Econoline / Club Wagon, and other compatible Ford small block carburetor builds.

Vehicle names are provided as reference examples only. Engine swaps, cylinder head changes, carburetor selection, air cleaner height, throttle linkage, distributor clearance, accessory brackets, and hood clearance can affect final fitment. This manifold is not compatible with 255, Boss 302, or 351W engines. The 351W belongs to the broader small block Ford family but uses different intake manifold fitment, so the engine family must be verified before installation.
