Hey Guys, Need some help figuring out which Intake will replace mine that is cracked.
Truck is a 65 F250 4x4 with a 352. Wanting to go stock cast and keep the 2bbl carb.
I think any FE 2V intake will work. Unless my memory fails me and there is a 2V with cast-in EGR passages, which you don't want. Your truck isn't "numbers" correct so year doesn't matter. You want any early ('65-up-ish) one, but not so early it has a road draft tube.
You could have had mine for free. I threw it on the scrap pile (I can't throw one farther than that) when I installed an aluminum Edelbrock. I swore I would never struggle with an iron one by myself again, and so far I haven't.

Good info, Thanks! So what vehicles would I find a FE 2V intake on and what should I look for to identify it as one that will work? I realize the heads are from a 67 Galaxie and the intake is probably original being a 65.

Road draft tube isn't a problem, just make a blockoff plate out of aluminum or steel.

1965 F100/350 352 without PCV: Road draft tube fits into the hole at the rear of the right valve cover.
With PCV: Smog valve fits into this same hole. Both use a rubber grommet. All 1966 and later have PCV
You shouldn't have too much trouble finding someone swapping to an aluminum 4bbl intake, but they will need to be fairly close by, because even if they were giving the manifold away, shipping it could get expensive, cuzz they are NOT LIGHT.......
First and Foremost, welcome to FTE!!If unable to locate thru local salvage, or possibly Craig's list. If you have an ebay account they occasionally come-up. I have it set up to receive daily ebay email notices when an item of interest is place for 'auction', or 'buy now'.
