Lynn, the deuces used the 2110 70 LT1 intake. A one year only intake #.

Thanks. Sorry about that. I thought they used the LT1 engine same as Z/28 and Corvettes. Learn something new every day here.

116 intake was only "over the counter", not factory installed on anything. $350.00 is just a bit optimistic.

I take issue, John. $350 is more than a "bit" optimistic, it is WAY optimistic for an over the counter part. Although I guess I could put it on ebay and claim it is an "over the counter high performance part just like a cross ram".

I feel like a real dumb sh!t. I bought my first 69 Z/28 in 1971, and have been around lots of muscle cars since then (obviously not many 2nd gen Z's) and for years thought I had a 1970 intake. Did not know it was strictly over the counter, which makes sense, since that is how I acquired it! Will update the ad on camaros.net.

I will probably just keep it. It is in such good condition and looks better than my 472 intake, so I may even put it on my car or just save it for another project. Guess it would work well for someone doing a "day two" job on a SS 350.

This would have been much more entertaining if some dishonest guy had listed it as having been removed on day 2 from a brand new 70 LT1 engine. Don't you love some of the BS stories you get with parts for sale?

Thanks for the education guys.

Lynn, the deuces do have the same LT1 as the Z28, they just have the 2110 intake per the factory, not the 2116 version. Nice lookin intake though.

(didn't the 2116 come on the '71 Z28's??)

Mikes Nasty Z site shows the different 70~71~72 Z-28 / LT-1 engine pieces.

Accoriding to the nastyz site, the 71 also had the 3972110 intake.

Most 71s I've seen have the 9594 intake with the cyl #s cast on the runners. 71 LT1s also changed head castings. I could see it being possible for early 71s to get the 2110s.I've found in this hobby there are very few absolutes.

The 1970 Z/28 intake was and is the 110. The 71 and 72 Z/28's used the same 594 intake.

I have not seen a 110 intake on any original 1971 Z/28's.

The 116 intake was a service replacement and was never used on production ordered Z/28's.
