Alford -

Are you looking for the 3933163 intake manifold?  Does the casting date on the underside of the intake manifold need to be before the engine assembly date since it is not visible when installed?     ???

Wouldn't the correct one for a  396/375 December 19th engine be the 3885069 2 hole manifold?

069 is correct until about Jan of 1968, then the 163 was phased in.  There are two different 069s so make sure if you're searching for one it has the plenum dividor and not three holes, that's the earlier version.

Also, be very careful on the 069s, the runner bolt hole areas tend to crack here a lot.  Many of these that we get in for reskinning have to be fixed.  So if you buy one, inspect it carefully.

Do you have an earlier intake manifold for trade?     I have a May 67 car looking for a 069 intake dated before this.  The intake i have is a 069 but the date is  11  21  67.
