Your 75 intake will work , you can put later intakes on earlier heads - no mods.

Also this is an ultra low mileage survivor car.
Engine should be pretty snug still.
The only mods so far were done by the previous owner. He did the exhaust(no cats), Installed a 72 factory intake and put 1.65 rockers on it.

I drove the car 125 miles yesterday and it runs great. I'll do the shaker modification and leave it alone for awhile while I work on my lemans I never realized how rich the lemans was running until I had the 75 TA to compare it to. After driving the TA and arriving at my destination and not smelling like fumes and exhaust I realized I've got some work to do with the lemans.

Previous owner told me the TA had a 3.08 rear. I haven't confirmed yet and PHS didn't list rear end either, unless I just didn't see it in the PHS packet.

One day I'll put the 62 heads on the TA as suggested by members.
