Maybe you're a little new to this Hemi stuff but if Chrysler made one injection molded chopped fibreglass duct assembly for the 383 and 440 and then in using that assembly in the 426 hemi applications, they modified it by punching a hole in a specific spot for master cylinder clearance and then offered it as a separate assembly due to that different application THAT IS A DIFFERENT PART.
Just because you can make the 383/440 component into the hemi component with five minutes of creative cutting does not make it the same part. It makes it a replica of the original part. For those of us who restore and preserve these cars, it does make a difference.
You've posted all of 4 times on this website. A little courtesy goes a long way. I would venture to guess that the guys attempting to help out with info on this car have several decades more experience with these cars than you do. So if you want to argue the semantics of part numbers, I'd be happy to play. But then again, I'm a relative newbie since I've only been wrenching on them for 30 years.
