Best Answer

tbi engine top end is different from carb engine top end.

on a carburated engine, the intake and heads use 90 degree angles for intake mounting bolts.

on a tbi engine, the intake and heads use 75 degree angles for intake bolts.

you can choose one of these three options:

entire new engine.

intake manifold designed for tbi heads but utilizes a carb mounting flange on top

or

tbi manifold to spread bore or square bore adapter
