Default 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.

What is there about this statement that you do not understand? Unless you have not seen any of these manifolds.

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.
