Are they still making them any more? Thats what they used to say about the stock exhaust manifolds too. I wouldnt throw away if I had them.
I been living that creedo for the last 20 years , the last time I moved it took me a month because I won't toss anything because someone might need it ... I'm finding out NO ONE really needs it , I'll be THROWING OUT tons of stuff over the next year , I'm tired of looking at it , storing it , tripping over it ... etc , etc ... just in case someone MIGHT want it .

I guess what I surmise is that IF you can find a buyer, $25.00 would be about right. If you can't sell them and if it's no problem storing them, you may want to just sit on them, as someday in the distant future they will be harder to find (dates codes etc.) and that's why I don't just scrap mine

I used to keep old stuff too because I thought maybe I could sell it for like $10 to someone who really needs it. But nobody's interested in most of this junk unless you give it to them for free and pay the shipping out of your own pocket. Things like stock intakes and exhausts are not hard to find and don't have a lot of demand either. These days I pitch stuff like that in the trash just to clear up some room.

Old Edlebrock CH4B aluminum intakes are a good "replacement" style intake (make good power too) with all factory hookups (If I remember correctly anyway). Most people would mistake them for astock iron intake iof you ground off the numbers.
Still one of the best dual plane intake's after all these years.

Those cars aren't worth restoring if the engine is gone and if the engine is still in there chances are it's totally stock. Hence no market for a 66 440 intake.
No arguement as to the market for 66 intakes Sheldon, I was only "un-writing off" the 66 440's
*As far as racing your truck, I'm not sure what truck you mean but be careful choosing off a 440 equipped 66 300, they are a tad quicker than most might think!
