The intake manifolds on the 366 and 427 "truck" blocks can be interchanged. They can"t be used on the 396, 402, 427, and 454 passenger car/truck block because they are wider, because of the taller cylinder deck heighth of the "truck" block. One can use an intake manifold from the passenger car/truck block if spacers are used between the intake manifold and cylinder heads. Everything else is interchangeable between themselves and the passenger car/truck block, including cranks, the exception being the pistons. The truck pistons are taller because another set of rings are used (hence the .4" taller block), so won"t fit in the passenger car/truck block without either shortening the stroke, rods, or a combination of them. You could use the shorter passenger car/truck piston in the truck block, but without either going with a longer stroke, rods, or combination of, the compression ratio will drop off significantly. Those are the exceptions. Everything else is green light.
