I need an original cast iron 2 barrel intake manifold for a 351 Windsor. Not sure of age of my engine - not sure if it makes a difference.

Prefer SA where possible

Ouch! Not many of those still around, I'd reckon - most would have been turfed 30 years ago...

Might have more luck finding a 4 barrel but I guess that wouldn't satisfy the inspectors?

Would the 2 barrel Autolite carby fit on the 4 barrel intake? If so, I suspect the rego inspectors would not be able to tell the difference (they would not remove the carby)??

No you can not do that . Surly someone on here has taken off there 2 barrel carby intake manifold and carby to fit a 4 barrel and have it sitting around . That's why I have one sitting around .

OK I think I have found one but he want......... $250 for it!!!!!!! Gulp......supply and demand. Not happy.

Lee H 69 I won't grab this other one until I hear back from you (or any other forum members) just in case you do have one........

LEE H 69 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 27, 2015, 07:08:34 pm »

is this what you are after? it didn't come on my 351w but came with it, Absolutely no idea what they are worth or the freight to you from QLD, make me an offer if it's what you need,

C90E-9425-F = '69 351.... Looks like the right animal..

mk1_oz · « **Reply #11 on:** November 27, 2015, 08:54:32 pm »

Appreciate you looking....yes that looks like the beast. any idea of the weight so I can look into freight costs? My uneducated guess would be 20kg.....

LEE H 69 · « **Reply #12 on:** November 27, 2015, 09:04:32 pm »

Yep spot on mate, 20Kg. pick up would be from Logan Qld if that helps with costing

Mate they must all be in QLD, I have one you can have too. D70E-9425-BD.
But I think the freight will be the killer.

mk1_oz · « **Reply #15 on:** November 29, 2015, 01:33:17 am »

Cheers. Freight would be OK if I did not need one ASAP. Overnight freight is $140+ ouch.

Hopefully the local one I found is ok else I will have to rob QLD of one!!!

Brian ,
Check your existing mounting bolt holes, some have 16 holes, usually on 4v heads,
others have 12bolts for v2 heads

The extra holes can be drilled and sealed with short bolts.

Tip: When fitting use a four of long bolts with the heads cut off as alignment pins

Cheers,
ND

I have one and carby of the partners 68 model windsor, we replaced it with a 4 barrel manifold and carby and I would like to sell it for offers around $150 , I am sure I can get a fair postage deal on it to SA as I am in Bathurst.

GLENN 70 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 03, 2015, 11:00:06 am »

Dead 66 are you sure yours is a 351w and not a 289/302 set up .

mk1_oz · « **Reply #19 on:** December 03, 2015, 01:12:35 pm »

Cheers all. I now have a super heavy 2 barrel cast iron intake with 16 bolts. Putting it on as we speak...

Its on!!!! Had to use the engine hoist as my back just wasn't going to cope with leaning into the engine bay with a 20kg boat anchor. Will see tomorrow if I have any leaks. I was pleased to see that the valley was almost spotless so this motor has not done alot of Ks since its last rebuild.

LEE H 69 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 03, 2015, 09:34:36 pm »

good to hear you sourced one local

The weight difference between the Offy and the steel one is unbelievable!
