13BRE intake to 13BREW iron
i imagine the info is somewhere in this section but i couldn't come up w it.
i am building a motor for a customer that is a 13BREW.
he wants to use a 13BRE intake. i have a 13BRE intake gasket and will have the manifold shortly. looking just at the gasket, it appears there is a lot of metal on the south quarter that would need to be removed on the secondaries. the mid iron is a BRE so it does have the primaries that match the gasket.
i would greatly appreciate someone getting me up to speed on how to deal w the secondary BREW ports.
thanks,
howard

thank Luis/Black Mamba,
just to put a period on it, i finished opening the FD irons to BRE with no problems... i took almost 1/2 inch out of the floor and was able to blend to the runner.
tomorrow i do the manifold.

i did this….took a lot of time, and a lot of porting, measuring, porting, remeasuring, assembling etc etc etc until it all matched. i went this route since i had never done this before but it worked out really well. i am using all REW irons to a BRE manifold.

Wow, almost 1/2", well I guess it's right because my plates were all ready ported when I did the gasket matching to the RE so maybe that's why I only took 1/4" the most.
Howard can you measure the other edge of the ports and compare to the measurements I sent you, also if you have a stock port to see the difference between the stock REW port and a gasket match RE port.
Thanks

Also to anyone else tha t is looking to do this, you should also port the LIM to match the gasket.

Great information, I've always figured it was just a port match but never expected a full 1/2" of material difference.
Do the REW & RE UIM's have the same gasket/bolting pattern? For instance, could you use a GZ LIM with a RE UIM and port match the GZ LIM to the RE LIM gasket?

There are few other things that have to be done to swap RE intakes to a REW block on a FD.
