 Didn't see that one when looking yesterday.  Was it for a BBC and a holley as opposed to a carter?

I have the one off Biskwik- Edelbrock Big Block Holly intake. Pretty sure it is oval ports, was a peanut port motor.

Has been all cleaned up.

Have some pretty cool tall valve covers from that motor.  Also have another one sitting on a 396 motor in storage.

 Hi Karl,  I don't know for sure what I am looking  for, a friend is helping me out and going to send some photo's.  The one I am looking for should should be an older intake  have the water exit ports in the same location as the cast iron Holley Intake.   Not sure what this means; but think it means the location for the heater hose and return for the water pump.

 It appeared to have mulitple carb mounting positions. The auction only had 15 hrs left when I posted Tuesday night and it is gone now. I neglected to put it in my watched folder for later access to the pic.

the c396 is an oval port intake drilled for holley and afb ..........I dont recall the heater hose location is same as stock intake ........the stock iron intake works just as good to 5500..........if you want a correct location alum intake get a L78 063 intake bolt it on your oval heads and go, good intake look stock painted orange gm snowflake etcetc
