You might want to check with an autoparts store just to be sure, but even they make mistakes.
Just a few days ago I got the Edelbrock Performer 2101 for my LG5 w/carb, but found out from mechanic that the heads on my car are different, possibly for fuel injection, but 2 or 4 of the bolts go in at a different angle.
Had to take the 2101 back & get a 2104.
Sometimes it is hard to figure out for sure until you get into it.

If that intake is square bore, and you are running the stock spreadbore Quadrajet, you'll need to buy an adaptor plate.

I went ahead & changed the carb to a Holly 4160, so no adapter was required.
