Please Help Identify 4x2 intake

Chris Hill · 07-16-2010, 07:43 PM

Can anyone help identify this intake and possibly its worth? It's a 2 x 4bbl intake that I think is a big block ??? given it's width. The owner's son thinks its for a 413 wedge 1959 model. I'm going to an auction tomorrow to possibly bid on it.

The intake is "supposed" to belong a a 59 Chrysler 300 with a 413 wedge.

It's not a big block Mopar intake.Too many attaching bolt holes,and I don't recall a water pump nipple or thermostat housing being on any B/RB intake.

Guessing....I'd say it's a polyspheric series intake.

It's a Poly head intake for sure and pretty rare. I have both the 383 and the 413 dual quad mani's and they use a valley pan gasket like any standard BB Chrysler.

Thanks for all the replies. I've searched on the web for poly intake casting numbers, but I can't find a good list. Does anyone have a source for those type casting numbers?

Chris,
If you need a set of oversized pistons for a 318 poly I have a new set of stock replacements. Memory is bad, but I think they are .030 or .040 os.

If you need an entire 318 poly, my crew guy bought a 64 Polara street car that had one in it. I think it came with a fresh spare too. I am sure he would sell it by the pound! They are 2 bbl engines. LOL.

This design, The Dodge Pro Stock head and the Ford Pro Stock Hemi is kind of a off shoot of this design chamber, there was a Oldsmobile design in 1985 that Albert Clark & Wayne County did development on in as billets. That is how Chrysler end up with this design I have dated pictures & some dyno results ran at LMR where there were back to back dyno test on this DRCE VS the Olds Billet Hemi raealy a semi-hemi
