    You can measure the distance across the two front intake manifold bolts..but I forgot the measurements. 322 is the narrowest, followed by 364, then 401/425. But now that I think about it, the 264 and 322 may be the same..oh well. I can measure a 322 for you later if no one has a better idea..

    Off the top of my head 364's intake bolts are 8 3/4" apart and 401's 9 1/4" apart.
     
  6. 264-322 8 1/4" across the front intake bolts

    364 is 8 3/4

    401-425 is 9"
