=========================== The Item ===========================
DESCRIPTION: Your bid is for an excellent original factory issue INTAKE MANIFOLD as used on the 72 1972 Oldsmobile with the 350 engine. Your bid is for a clean bare intake manifold as shown in the FILE PHOTOS. Your bid on this items pays for the CORE INTAKE, along with the thorough cleaning and crack check to ensure that the part is serviceable. At this time, your intake is oily and dirty and on the shelf.
PLEASE NOTE: It will take a week or so to get the intake to the machine shop and have them blast it clean like you see here. That way we can be sure that cracked junk will not be shipped, and it is ready for a final cleaning and installation. The final installer is the final inspector, and should of course thoroughly clean all engine parts inside and out before use.
WHAT ELSE DOES IT FIT and work on? This intake is identical in every way other than the casting ID to the 4-bbl intakes used on all the 1970 thru 1972 Rear Wheel Drive Olds 350 gasoline engines. Direct Swap. It will also fit all other such small blocks from the 1964 330 thru the last of the big-port 307 V8's. Earlier engines used a different type choke. Later engines had EGR which is not present here. Former 2-bbl engines will probably require basic alterations to the throttle cable, etc. Some earlier intakes used a different pipe thread size for the heater hose. All easy to work around. As long as your heads have the std size pre-smog large intake ports and bear the large casting ID 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, (7 with tiny A), 8, 3A, or 5A, this intake will match perfectly. If you can do w/o the EGR function, and work with having the Hot Air choke, then it replaces any intake with large casting ID 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, or A4.
Will box well protected to about 60 lbs at about 26x19x8 inches. Simply click -my- link above or below to see my other [including the COMPLETED] auctions for mating and similar parts.
CONDITION: These intakes sometimes have a CRACK along the outer edge of the gasket surface, or at the slimmest part of the casting between the large rear carb bores. These imperfections DO NOT affect the fitment or use of the intake. I generally run a tap thru all threaded holes to ensure the next user will have no thread issues. Threads too bad to use will be Heli-Coiled. There is usually some pretty severe pitting from rust in the external heat crossover area. Minor pitting is to be expected where the thermostat gasket goes- the gasket and sealer will take care of that nicely. See the pictures and inquire for more pix/ info before buying if necessary.
==>Sold strictly As-is. This does not mean the parts are bad, it means buyers shall not vacillate over the purchase; a sale is a sale.

...Tired of looking? Tired of waiting and waiting? Tired of the scammers in England who "have your part, for sure, just send the money" [even if you ask for a Left Handed Oversized Frammis Valve]? Tired of Chinesium junk that does not fit or work right with your factory parts? Here's your answer. GENUINE FACTORY casting.
Buyer will of course investigate application to their own satisfaction before buying.
