This manifold deal I have no dog in, but if it is going to be allowed they should look at the Z-28 Cross Ram and the '67 L-88, (can you say Camaro Cowl Hood)...to apply the same fairness and the Spirit of making the rules. At the Least those 2 or 3 issues need to be addressed. The LD manifold & AVS.. OK it fits, but for a Thermo Quad carb, come on...

I'm sure the 71 year will be corrected in the guide. 68-70 only AVS

Gordie,
Is it the same part # as the square bore AVS manifold?

George,
I am currently out of state and can't lay my eyes on them right now, but am 99.9% sure it is the same # as the square bore version..I have 2 of the square bore version and 2 of the spread bore.

If you'll notice this $700 intake on eBay has a notch cut out of the divider,
I believe that is not legal for stock.
At least that is what Mark Lelchook said about the 1972 340 cast iron intake
I have with the same notch in the divider.

This is an aftermarket manifold. All standards-rules-assumptions- considerations that apply to traditional replacement parts do not apply here. The notch in the divider was common to all Edelbrock manifolds of that era to allow the use of 3-barrel Holley carbs that were the hot lick of the day.

hmmm, I looked at two 340 intakes, the 2100 and the 025 , they have no notches. the 2100, is for 71 and 72 340. just observation from the field.
