Interesting Y Block Intake

I might have one

I think she's in a video on Youtube...

Perhaps someone who's in the witness protection program and not allowed to leave the state?

Or is it this guy who moved from the big city to the boondocks?

Moving on, since we figured out the last rare beauty, can anybody identify this rare beauty.

She sure does remind me a lot of somebody on this site, I just can't quite think of who though.

I keep getting visions of long sleeved white monogrammed shirts, tubing and orange oil filters

It all points to one person, but who is that person and who is she?

How about this one ???

How about Ford FE engine intake?

Based mostly on distributor location, water outlet location and the edges of the manifold being part of the valve cover sealing surface and the number and location of the manifold bolts

The Hyundai intake would be plastic

Intake from my 2018 Kubota?

Some of us do have older engines!

Glad I didn't buy it...

Sounds good. Now we can all go drink beer and eat turkey with our minds at ease,

Yep ha.

Mystery remains, the Studebaker intakes I have looked at look as if they have a much more perpendicular angle where the intake bolts to the heads than said intake. All the Chrysler's had ave a solid area between the exhaust crossover and intake runners that I can find. They did some odd stuff with the late 50s B engine (350/361) but I am nowhere near an expert on that early stuff.

I looked at the logo up close on the ebay add and I cant place it. It is a triangle with a circle on top like this. /*\

The Studebaker has 8 bolts too, the 4 that you're thinking of and 4 more with thick washers that go between the ears that have no holes.

Here's what the gasket looks like so you know where the bolts go

Okay I'm here to say that I disagree with Zach who agrees with me and my Chrysler guess.

So that means I disagree with what I guessed earlier.

It still not a Ford Y block though.

I'd say it's a Studebaker manifold from the 50's maybe early 60's. It could also be Packard or early Cadillac.

They all have the same firing order as mentioned earlier and look remarkably like each other. and like the original Ebay picture in this thread

Looking at the number of bolt holes in the mounting flanges and their shape is a good clue.

They didn't have the distributor mount to the manifold either.

Studebaker and Packard were under the same ownership for a while at the end of their production runs.

At least for now, I agree with myself...............I think
