Thanks!
have been watching this for about a week now. machinist tells me those factory intake actually have a curve in the machined surface that mates to the heads.

I looked at my factory intake upon my last top end rebuild 10 years ago. Whatta ya know????

I still have the factory carb from 1970 in near perfect condition to rebuild. I am looking at an 84-86 carb from Cliff if you know what I am after.

PM me for more details.
