Intake
I have an intake that has D5TE9425MB on it. If anyone can give me any info on this it would greatly be appreciated. The intake is on a 105 mirrored block with a 3.98 stroke that has D2TEAA heads. 428?

well the intake is a 1975 designed pickup piece, heads are pickup heads, are you sure the stroke is 4" or does it just sit deep in the bore? maybe you got a engine that someone already stroked...

Ya I checked that stroke 3 or 4 times. It comes up to 4" every time. What kind of ponies can I pull out of this setup with a little mod. I thought of cj porting the heads and a good cam (any opinions?) But do I need a different intake? Or can I get plenty of power out of this one? Come on folks give me some Ideas!!!!

Looks very much like a 428 to me. You should be able to make a BOSS truck motor with it.

Nothing special about that intake, you can do better with an S, CJ, PI or aftermarket piece.
Hey John, he's got one of those stock 4V manifolds we were talking about in another thread.

Ya that intake looks identical to mine. Is this a rare ancor or pretty common? I'm kinda new to all this but learning fast! Keep educating me and I'll keep learning. Heck one day might even graduate:-X12
Thanks all!

I just saw an offenhauser aluminum intake for a 390 on ebay with a buy price of 150. question is whether buying an al intake is going to make much difference from my stock cast iron intake with 9:1 compression? Thanks. Billy

D5TE intakes aren't particularly common. That doesn't make them valuable, however. In excellent condition (clean, all holes and tabes in good shape) they might bring $25-40 tops. They were optional on 390 engines in light trucks from 75-76.
That Offy intake is not a good buy for a truck. In general, swapping intakes won't do much for an otherwise stock motor. If you're building a new engine from the ground up, you might want to consider an aftermarket intake, but otherwise don't waste your money. Put it where it will make a difference, like electronic ignition, dual exhaust, etc.
