How do the intake ports align on your engine? The reason that I ask is, with the Ford aluminum heads, the bottom of the intake ports are raised 5/8 to 3/4 of an inch from what the 4v iron heads use.
The only way one could use a high port intake with an original 4v iron head would be to use an aluminum plate to block the bottom of the open port.
The 3x2 intake is made for the iron 4v heads.
I have never used the TFS heads so I don't know if that was a problem for you or not? Did you need to make adapter plates?
Here is the difference in the ports. Top is the 4v.
