    There is an adaptor that bolts right on to the existing studs. But it really is better to mill the surface flat and drill and tap new holes. Also, big thing here, if you haven't milled the head after changing head gaskets, do that. Really. Otherwise you just lose compression and the bonus from the 2bbl is kind of list.

    The one tricky part, is the throttle linkage. Still haven't quite ironed that one out yet.

    Head is not milled. It's a classic Inlines adapter. Let me try and upload a better picture

    I know this is an old thread, but does the Classic Inlines adapter have an inlet for the PCV line?
