Please understand I take no offense to anybody questioning if this thing is real or not and I would welcome a real expert to look this thing over at my home in southern California to verify it. I saw this intake within days after my buddy bought it over 30 years ago well before we even knew what a 302 semi hemi motor was (or ex wives). In fact the guy he bought the complete intake and parts from asked to look at it again before I brought everything south this week end. This guy has a fathom green 69 Z/28 with a service package disc brake rear end and cross ram, 68 rally green Z/28 with a cowl plenum cross ram, factory headers and he is restoring a red 67 Z/28. He did not have an answer why the top plate had 2 part numbers and no date code while the bottom piece had the right part number and a very late 9/69 date code but there was never a question if it was a real GM part or not and this guy knows his stuff. The only reason I am asking the question is that I found a picture this morning in one of my books and I am just following up on a hunch. If you need more information or pictures e-mail me at [email protected]

Hey Mark,
I am not questioning the authenticity of your buddy's intake. I was just stating that there are fakes floating around out there. I'm certain that if your friend had this intake 30 years, that it is indeed real. That is also why I stated my interest. No offense intended. I have another 'hemi' top plate that I have had for years also, if you would like to compare pics, let me know. max |
