I love those.  Been a LONG time since I've even seen one for sale.  How did you find it?
:iagree:
Holy Sh!t!!!! I've heard about those, but never seen one!
Doug, that's the holy grail of small block parts. SUPER SWEET score.
You'll have to tell us how you came by that bad boy.!

 :cheers: I of course seen cross ram intakes on max wedges, hemis and a few 440's but quite honestly I never realized they even existed for small block application. OK, you found the "impossible", you succeded in buying it, so you better get to somewhere today and buy a lottery ticket.  :2thumbs: Congratulations and thanks for sharing.....................BTW, ya can also share the residue from your lottery winnings.  :roflsmiley:

Thanks guys and girls for the great comments,somebody could punch me in the nose right now and I would still have a smile on my face :bigsmile:
I have been trying to purchase one of these for years,I even have pics of an nos one that someone had but they wanted 5 grand for it and as crazy as I am,that wasn't gonna happen.This one actually was up in Surrey,BC.
I have been collecting up the parts that I have always wanted for the 69 Cuda fastback,I had gotten a 340 disc brake k-frame with the small bolt pattern KH set up,This past fall at a swap meet I scored a set of 14x6 small pattern torque thrust wheels(which are very rare find,looked for a set for 12 years)
I have boxes of parts that I have been buying to make it all come together,this intake was one of the hardest things to buy(most that own one won't sell it)
The 71 Cuda will have to sit for a few years now,I will be dropping the engine,trans and k-frame out of my 69 Cuda this spring to get it ready to install everything.I still have a couple things that need to be purchased,but are all easy to buy new parts

Great Find !   :worshippy

Going to be really cool on the small block......

Now you can park next to a 302 Z-28 with the same manifold and be another cool kid on the block.. :2thumbs:

With all my racing connections I still can't find one..
