I have an intake from a 1966 327.  Part number 3905393.  I am not that interested in a correctly numbered intake at this point.  The one I have looks identical to the 3919803.  Would it work/perform okay?

As long as it is the same configuration, meaning same carb holes size, it should work fine and is essentially the same as the noted correct intake. It may be a 1966 date, but it's application is for a 67 327 and 350 for Q-jet. If it is, in fact, a 66 intake, it would be for a Carter AFB, so make sure the secondary holes are larger as a Q-jet would be.
The casting says it is 67 Q-jet and the Q-jet was introduced in 1967.

Soooo......  The correct intake # for a 1967 SS 350 engine would be 3905393 with a J266 date ?


Thanks in advance!!

If it's a Tonawanda engine, yes - that's a Tonawanda-cast intake.

Interesting. Thanks John. I do have an original 327/275 Tonawanda in the 67 SC that hasn't been touched but I'm trying to find an original for my 67 SS350 to have it period correct. The block that I have for it now is not original to the car but it is a 67 350.  It's a V0906MS  stamped block.

My original 67 sport coupe with a build date of week 4 June 1967(end of run) has all of the original parts and the intake shows as a 1968 #3919803 dual plane quadrajet intake for the engine code T0616MM. Is this possible?

I believe that intake may have been used late in the 1967 model year.  What is the casting date? Compare that to the assembly date of the engine.
