Default Re: 163 intake on ebay

Lynn,
The Winters foundry mark is in a different location.
Original intakes have the "W" on the #1 intake runner and the newer released intakes have the "W" on the #2 runner.
Both intakes use the same casting number.
An easy spot.
Eric

Lynn,

Another "easy spot" is the roughness of the casting skin
on the newer '163 intakes. The originals were smoother.

In response to the sellers comments, I hate arrogant liars.
No LS-6 came with a '163 intake from the factory. They
were into the lower rise intakes by then. Bite who?

Steve

Like Bigchevydaddy said: "the LS-6 was evidently a crate motor".
My LS-6 crate-motor came with the #163 intake.
