    A Generator.
    An old heater.
    A home made high ram (made from a FI base); I'm guessing THIS is what the question is about?
    A boat propeller.
    Some kind of a busted up industrial space heater.
    And some other junk.

    I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

    Is that a Small Block Ford intake? If it is then it looks like a large plenum four barrel adapter on a late model EFI intake.

    That intake is definitely late model small block Ford EFI.

    Having said that... the top looks like some sort of aftermarket EFI plenum that has been *******ized to accept a 4 bbl.

    Meth is a hell of a drug.

    Top looks like a FI plenum with a carb mount grafted on.

    The top half looks like a 4bbl spacer J-B Welded to a fuel tank from a "box type" Ker-O-Sun heater:eek:

    it does appear to be Ford, but not EFI intake as there are no bungs for the injectors

    Buckeye, that is one of my favorite sayings! I use it all the time! I heard it from a fellow worker, when I started out in this trade! It’s as funny now as it was then! It still gets funny looks when I say it! And, Hey, I bet your grampa was a great guy!

    Thing is, that doesn't look like a factory plenum that I've seen. Not that I've seen them all, but recall the Ford EFI plenums kinda hung over to one side.
