650 / 701 intake????

[JeffMcBusa]

I just received my 61x 701 engine. I was under the impression that almost everything was a direct swap over from a 650 engine. Well as I am bolting everything on, I discovered that the intake manifold is slightly different. So my 650 intake "stuff" will not bolt on. can someone tell me what the part is called that the reeds bolt to? I assume I can take the reeds off this part and bolt them to a replacement piece. I need the intake manifold and this part that bolts to the bottom of the manifold. Once I know what it is call I can start looking for it. Can someone tell me what it is called and does anyone have the 61x intake pieces i am looking for? I hope I HAVE EXPLAINED MYSELF!!! Thanks

I dont know much about this stuff, but pictures always help. I know it might be tricky, but posting a few will definitely get you moving faster.

Got it figured out. Will use pictures next time though. It just didn't occur to me! Thanks

The reeds from the 6m6 are actually different than the 61x reeds so you'll need the intake manifold, reed manifold, and reeds.
