I remember in the 70's guys were wanting aluminum intakes to replace their cast iron intakes just for weight savings!
Check out the Dorn's 69 Barracuda "Switchblade" in the Nov.2010 MCG Check out the Dorn's refurbished 36 Ford in the Feb.2011 Street Rodder

My '70 Six Barrel GTX is original and it was built at Lynch Road with a build date of A23 and has an Iron intake with a casting date of 9-25-69, about 1 month earlier.
SlickRS23, which iron intake does your GTX have, the 2946275 or the 2946276?

Thanks for the info. Your telling me what I expected all along. I guess I'm looking for a iron intake cast in late 1969. Thanks to Dartman for the photo...my car is now FC7 again. It was yellow when raced in NHRA stock class.
I've got a cast iron 6-pack intake cast 10 31 69. I got it as a trade when I sold some guys restoring a '69 1/2 6bbl Road Runner their matching numbers engine and transmission.
Since I'd just be using it on my '70 Barracuda to build a clone, I'd really rather have an aluminum one. Let me know if you'd be interested.
I'm in the Detroit area.
