Sweet. Looks good. If I hadn't bought a new one i'd have tried to snag this and get it to work just for the looks. Way cool.

1961-1962 390 piece. Curious why it's spray painted, also have to check the exhaust cross-over for rot.

Nope...

It's actually C3AZ-9424-D, notice the slanted carb pads and no provision for vacuum between 6 and 7

C3SZ-9424-J has flat carb pads and a vacuum port between 6 and 7

Cheaper than any I've come acrossed over the years. Their was a younger kid up at the Lincoln,NE swap meet that a bunch of odd FE stuff that I couldn't aford. 3x2 intakes with carbs, high, med & low riser intakes for 427's all kinds of good stuff. Lol

$350 is about the going rate for a bare tri-power intake. $400 if it has the oil fill tube and rear cover.

Just have to watch the exhaust cross-over for rot on those intakes. For whatever reason the tri-powers get nailed with a lot of corrosion and rot that doesn't effect the other intakes as much.

The market has really come down on 3X2 and 2X4 intakes since they are available new in the aftermarket.

The mid 90s was fun buying/trading and selling FE parts. Those that think they have a goldmine today are living in the dark unless it is Tunnel Port items.

Today you can build an all new Medium riser, High riser and SOHC and not use a single used part.

I used to eat, sleep and breathe FE engines.
