Here's what I can tell you:

First, the intake will bolt right on and will work well with your probable C1AE heads. Only challenge will be your crank ventilation and oil addition provisions). The E-brock Performer does not have provision for oil addition tube at the front and does not have a crank breathing tube hole on the back. So you would have to run valve covers that allow for oil addition and crank ventilation of your choice. No problems if you don't mind a later sixties look to your '62 'bird's engine compartment.

As for the cam, you will have to have your '61/'62 block modified-upgraded to accept the '63 & later cam retention plate rather than your existing thrust button against the timing cover system. This is an easy upgrade that can be handled by any comptetent mechanic/machinist.
This thread, so far...
