Lean burn engines

[Ray Drouillard]

The 304, 360, and 401 are almost the same block.  The bores and strokes are
different, but the bore centers and all that stuff are the same.  The parts
are somewhat interchangeable.  When you buy an intake manifold, for
instance, the manifold is designated as a 304/360/401 manifold.  I believe
the exhaust manifolds are the same - as well as minor items like
distributors, oil pumps, oil pans, timing parts, various covers, etc.
