Need advice on adapters for the air cleaner housing or tubes. Background: Swapping out motors HeavyEquipmentForums Donor is Ford. Bad motor is IH Ford has a threaded rod center post like passenger cars and trucks, while the IH has a bolt down flange with a neck to connect to. The inlet manifolds appear to be the same otherwise. Question/thoughts: Options I am considering: Using the IH bolt-down somehow secured by the center bolt. This would save having to change out the manifold and possibly creating other work and expense. Or- just change the manifold and new gaskets. Any thoughts would be welcomed.
