I don't know a whole bunch about the Y- block but I am pretty sure I have a four barrel intake manifold for one but am not sure what the year is, what size eingine it was for or what kind of truck/car it came out of. I hope someone here can help me identify the casting number on it so know a little bit more about it. The casting number on the intake is ECZ-9425-B. Below the casting # is 2H9, and below it is a number 3. The number 3 is also on the underside of the intake. It has the firing order on it which is 15486372. The thermostat housing has the number EBV-8594-A with the number 14 below it. The intake is also cast iron along with the thermostat housing. I don't think I have ever seen a thermostat housing weigh almost 2 pounds. All information is appreciated.

I don't have a complete resource for looking up casting #'s, but the ECZ is for a 312. Maybe someone else could give you a specific year.

You lucky dog.

Thanks for the info Nate. Hopefully I can get the year also. It probably was luck coming across a part like that. I found it with the holley carb still on it with the blue Ford id tag still attached. It took me a while to figure out what it was for because I had never seen that kind of intake runner design before.

Mistake. The #3 is above the casting number

Alright, I think I figured out what year the intake is but hopefully someone could help me confirm this. The Holley carb that was on the intake has a 284 on the left side looking at the front where the serial numbers are. On the the right side it has the number C3TE-9510-F and below that it has: List 2151-1. I would assume that the C3T stands for 1963 truck. The rest except for the 2151 I have no idea about. Anybody have any Ideas?

I checked those numbers on the carb in my parts manual and it looks like it is from a 292 in one of the following trucks:
63 F-B- or N- series 500 or 600, a 63 C-series 550 or 600, or a 64 F- or B- series 600.
I don't know what the 284 or the list # is for.

I think you've got a '57-59 312 1x4bbl intake. Similar to, or exactly, a 1957 Thunderbird. The intake for said bird is a ECZ9425B. I don't know if it was used on other vehicles, but bird parts tend to not be used on other vehicles.

Is this a part you're using, or selling? I've been thinking of changing my bird to the '57 carb, and would use that manifold in doing so.

Did you sell the manifold or what ?? I need one for a project..block is almost done.!! Gene

 

That is the good intake. Used on all 4bbl Y blocks from 57-64. Takes the Holley, Carter AFB (Edlebrock)bolt pattern.
Pre 57 used the ECZ-A.

 

I sold the intake earlier in the year to a guy with a 57 F-100 project, I think it was. Even though I was not advertising it as for sale, he contacted me directly by e-mail and asked if I was willing to sell it. Sorry guys.
