No. If you are talking GT6 Mark 1, totally different port arrangement.
If GT6 Mark 2 or 3, again, no. Close but no cigar. The early TR6 intakes
have the narrower intake port spacing. The later TR6 intakes have the
same intake port spacing as the GT6 heads so they would match. Sort of.
If you are talking about putting a TR6 intake and bigger carbs on a GT6
there would be some major issues. You'd never get it under the bonnet,
very limited clearance. Have you ever seen a GT6 that had a little dimple
pushed up at the front of the bonnet bulge? It is from folks putting a
screw
drive hose clamp on the thermostat housing, the screw at the top of the
clamp. Doesn't work, space is so tight under there.
So the simple answer is no, a TR6 intake will not work on a GT6.
