NHRA Blue print changes
The 1970 intake manifold has been changed for the chevrolet 350/360-370. The listing includes 3927116. What is this manifold? Any ideas?

So instead on an aluminum hi-rise dual plane you now get a Torker or Victor Jr?

No, I believe this intake has been around for 20+ years. At one time it was available over the counter from Chev dealers. It looks just like the original as I remember. That is, unless they have a new version that I have not seen.

Valid question. Most replacement stuff dosen't resemble the originals. I know the manifold has a shorter inboard radius on the outer four intake runners. Anytime the auto makers reproduce a part, if possible, any improvements are included. That is why anytime a "replacement" part is allowed in S/SS it should be evaluated by people who are actually familiar with what this part is intended to do.
The manifold is still a dual plane. |

This manifold is virtually identical to the 110 that was already shown for this motor. NHRA got the 2 and the 7 reversed when they listed the number, it should be 3972116. That number was already on the authorized list of intakes for the '69 302.
