will my RPM AirGap fit???
hey guys i just got a edelbrock RPM airgap intake and i didnt even noticed but it says that it will not fit '87 and later cast iron heads. Here is the thing though. I have a '94 350 block and have AFR 195 heads on the way. Will the intake fit?? I would suck to buy it and just figured that it wont fit. Any input is appreciated.

The issue is the center intake/head bolts. They are at a different angle.
It all depends on wether your AFR's are designed early style or late style.
If you got the wrong kind, you can hog out the bolt holes a little and get it to bolt up.

i got the 195cc Street Heads, Straight Plug w/heat riser, 68cc part # 1034. But on their web site it says:
"make this the perfect street head for 350 cid to 400 cid engines from 1955-86. Aslo available for 1987 to present engines."
If i didnt specify for which year and just ordered the pair does that mean they most likely sent me the heads for 1955-86 style?

Sounds to me like you have 55-86 heads coming, and a 55-86 intake on hand; so you have a match. The year of the block doesn't matter.
Even if you don't, all you have to do is to elongate the 2 center holes on each side of the intake, to allow for the bolts that sit at a different angle.
