Laid Back Boaters

These are in really good shape, no cracks. Need some polishing, no real deep scratches. Not sure what they fit! LOL! Selling for a friend, first $75. Also they have 3 stud rear flanges.

What ever they fit, it sure is a small motor....look a the size of the exhaust ports!!

I know mike, maybe they are for a studebaker?

Plus the gap between the center cylinders is different than the others...

probably fit a twin engine 1987 Dodge Colt. Oldrigger may have an idea what they might actually fit.

I say older BBF FE Engine

I have a feeling they are Buick nailhead manifolds

I don't think they're FE. Here's a gasket for that.



Here's a nailhead manifold. I think big nasty might be on to something.

not buick, different bolt pattern

I was hoping they'd be 500 caddy. They're pretty hard to come by but I don't think that's it either.

I found out what they are for. What a suprise. they fit a 215cid buick.

nice find.

I knew Big Nasty was onto it, they are Buick.

Wow I was just on the wrong cid Buick
That 215 is the aluminum block Buick if I remember correctly

You're right again, it was an aluminum engine. Rover in England ( I think they're in England) bought the tooling from GM for the 215, changed several of the features that were the weak link with the engine, I have no idea what those changes were, and used that engine for decades as their work horse motor, like our SBC.

There's a 215 Olds too and from what I read some of the parts are not interchangeable between the two.

your right they used a simular motor in the F-85 Olds back in the early 60's like 3 or4 right
