Poston B-350 Intake

Any good? What are they worth?

 

There are a lot of Poston intake discussions in past threads.

 

They are mostly worth weight savings. Not a lot of hp gains.

 

because they are pretty flat on top. it would make a good start for a supercharger manifold. got a price?

 

Not mine. A friend of a friend has a complete ‘71 350 For Sale with that on it and a crappy Edelbrock carb. What’s a fair price for the complete motor? Ran strong when pulled, grain of salt....

 

well IF you get the motor and IF you'd like to get rid of that crappy edelbrock let me know .

 

$200 for a good running engine is the max I would pay... $300 with alum intake

 

poston - i seem to recollect that the main concern with those was even fuel distribution . minimal if any gains over stock intake . but memory leads me to think back and maybe the infamous "1100 hp" 350 used that intake with a gutted plenum and carb spacer ??? maybe not !

 

Just like every sbb 350 high HP story here, inflated numbers because they thought they were in the eye 0f a typhoon when they were dynoing the engine! LOL

 

They used a modified cast iron intake on the 1021 Hp engine... with a 4 inch spAcer.
