What have you guys found???... Some pictures would be cool.. Here's some rare intakes folks had for sale.... I'll post more stuff later on...
That last pic is a ford tunnel port intake I think, rare for sure. I have one and, though I'm not that up to date on the market, for $785 I think it's quite a fair price.
If I am not mistaken that is for an FE engine right? I would really like to have one of those!! Just out of my price range..
Yes that's for an FE had one on my OT galaxie seems it doubled the price of the car. Made a lot of people interested in it so I sold it.
I used to have a complete 2x4 Tunnel port engine NASCAR crank,13:1 pistons,SS legal in a 67 Fairlane with all the goodies, big input 4 speed, N case 31 spline equalock.Had about 5 quarter mile runs on the new engine. I sold the whole shebang for 2000 bucks. Guess the year. Lately I have found out how stupid I was and how smart my buyer was.
There aren't a whole lot of swapmeets around this area. The last one I went to I picked up this 3x2 setup to go on the 348 for my truck.
$3000 for that Y Block tri power with holley carbs that should be on something else is nuts. Y Block intakes are getting harder to find but not to that extent. The guy must be taking some strange medication
If you are talking about the Y Block one I would have to see it with the carbs off to believe that. It looks to me like someone made adapter plates for the Holleys.
The intake is actualy a Tunnel wedge. It will not fit the Tunnel port heads. If you look close it has provisions for the pushrods to go on each side of the port. A tunnel port intake the pushrod goes directly through the middle of the port through a br*** sleeve. The price is still reasonable though.
On that "Y" block with the trips on it-I would like to know how a distributor will fit behind that rear carb. Oldmics
That I don't know.... I think I still have the guy's info... Looks like the air cleaner base has a cutout for clearance....
