[Chevelle-list] 64, 65 BB

[Mike Holleman]

Devin, Look for a 3933163 intake. It's an aluminum intake GM used on the 396/375 and the 427/425 engines. Made by Winters for GM. With a dropped air filter base it should clear the hood with problem. I have one but really hadn't planned to sell it. They are usually available on EBay.
It fits Rectangular port heads.
Mike

  Tom-  Any information would be appreciated.  A casting number would be a good start, or better yet to get it in my possession.

   

  Regards,

  Devin,

   

  My information is certainly dated but I owned a 1964 El Camino a few years ago and installed a 396.  In order not to modify the hood I used a late sixty’s low profile corvette intake. I believe my buddy may still have the intake. It would take me a few days to round him up. He’s in Florida and I’m now living in GA…Hope this helps…Tom

  I know from seeing signatures that I’m not the only one on this list running a BB in an early car.  I am trying to fit a BB under a stock 64 hood.  I have another 64 hood that a friend was modifying for me, but has lost interest in and I can’t seem to get him to finish.  Anyway, the critical question is, what intake/carb/air cleaner drop are you running? 

   

  I currently have a Victor Jr/Demon and 68 Corvette air cleaner with 4” K+N on mine and it appears that I’m about 2 to 2.5 inches too high for a flat hood.  I expect to have to go to a dual plane for now, hopefully not as far as a Performer.  I’d like to be able to fit in an rpm or Weiand Stealth, or equivalent.

   

  Devin
