The search button is your friend. So is the FAQ section.

viewtopic.php?t=16331

The second topic covers intakes, starting with the Magnum. It has all the info you could need.

you will need to get shorter bolts to mount the magnum mani. your stock ones are too long. cant remember off the top of my head the size you need though

intake bolts from a DOHC 1st gen, or a SOHC 1st gen with aluminum intake manifold will work.

6 head to IM bolts are M6X1.00X25 dodge p/n# 6506575AA $1.56 a piece (i got mine from autozone)

two map sensor mounting screws 6504789 $0.90 a piece (NEED THESE, old ones from a plastic intake won't work)

intake maniflod to head gasket is $3.66 (NEED this as your plastic manifold uses o-ring like gaskets)

For the record, the stock bolts worked for me. But 90 cents isn't a bad deal if for some reason they don't.

if you look at the two bolts side by side there is a pretty big difference the plastic mani bolts are more like self tapping screws and the mag map bolts are more like a screw that goes in eyeglass frames only bigger.

You can solve these problems easily with 5 min at a harware store and 6 or $7 in hardware. No dealer fasteners needed here.

yea but the map screws are only .90 a piece at dealer price so thats not bad, also the mani-head bolts are M6X1.00X25 and are VERY easy to find in the metric section of bolts

Actually it is bad. They're 10 cents at the hardware store, and that's already 3x as much as it should cost.

I thought they were G8.8 bolts. That makes them spendier.
