Yes, however, in 89, Chevy started to update the small block, and came out with the SB2, or first gen., Vortec, and redesigned the cylinder heads. One of the changes they finally made was to change the head angle, in relation to the block deck. This also changed the intake manifold/cylinder head, relationship, making this intake non interchangable, with the SB1, or the standard heads.

Why does 3800 engine intake manifold water leak?

In my Chevy 1500 with the 305 Vortec, the problem was the lower intake manifold gasket, which is the one that seals it to the engine block. On your 3800 V6 (in a Silverado? I didn't know that; I thought it was the 4.3, maybe it's an older or newer year than my body style), it could very well be the same. There is also a coolant line coming out of the manifold, if I'm not mistaken. Could be to the thermostat, but I don't have the truck anymore. To the best of my knowledge, that would be the easiest and cheapest thing to check.


What is the normal running temperature for a 400 small block Chevy?

I believe 180 F for most of the older small block chevy. Make sure the head gasket has "steam holes" since only the 400 uses them. The steam holes are above and below adjacent cylinders. Dennis
