Is the 16v intake manifold bolt pattern different than the 8v? I'm assuming so, but I would like to make sure.

Thanks,

More importantly that bolt pattern, the ports are the big difference... 8v non-cross flow has to pack 4 intake and 4 exhaust ports on the same side.

The Head on the other hand mostly bolts right on then the intake could be bolted on.

How about the 8V 11mm ARP head studs? Are those interchangable?

Nope, too short.

Dave, nothing 8 valve interchanges if that helps. :confused:

Hybrids also need other studs,you would need the ones for a VW super vee.
