motorcraft 4350/Qjet adapter

Frank400:
I'm looking for an adaptor which would enable me to install a Quadrajet on a Ford 460 factory intake.  I'm pretty sure it was available at one time, but I've been looking everywhere and can't find any.  If anyone has one he wants to get rid of, or know where I can find one, please let me know.

frank im running a quad on a stock 460 manifold. i took and taped the crossover holes and installed allen head plugs . then i took marine tex and filled everything in flat .and used the square bore to spread bore spacer that you can buy at any parts house . been on there 2 years with no issues. wfiw

Frank400:
Would you have pics of that ?  I don't have the intake here at home, it's for a friend's '76 460 out of a Mercury Marquis.  I know there is already some sort of spacer (that was for EGR I think).  Do I keep that spacer on it ?  If you can't post pics here, you can always send them to my e-mail which is frankyboy455@hotmail.com.

   Thanks again, Frank.

no throw it away. im going to pull the engine soon to change heads. and change the heater core .ill see if i can get some pictures. im planning on changing the intake also .

Frank400:
I found this picture on the net.  I know this is a squarebore spacer but if I used a Qjet to squarebore adapter, the bottom would be the same.  I can clearly see where the problem is, in the front of the 2 primaries, just not sure I understand what you're sayin' about tapping the crossover holes.  Frank.
