Hi Garet,

Unfortunately, the Euro spec. 2.8 V6 has different heads than the U.S. spec 2.8 V6. The intake port shapes wouldn´t match. Too bad, because I think this would make the V6 Alpines look great.

Aw too bad! Is the only difference the heads? I guess I am asking if I got the european heads and intake would they fit on a Bronco II block . . .

I agree, that would be one great looking engine even if there was some serious bonnet modifications needed :D .

Hi Garet,

I believe the blocks are the same, but the Euro spec heads are so different, that the exhaust side wouldn´t fit your headers either. It is a shame that we can´t get a three two barrel manifold that fits the U.S. spec heads. It would look great with a plastic bubble in the hood, with a set of tripple Webber carbs peeking through, like on some of the old Ferrari´s, wouldn´t it?
