It IS basically the same design as the "real" L82 manifold, it's just no longer L82 specific after '76-'77, somewhere in there. They just started using it on base engines, too, for the weight savings, and the 5hp gain.

Would that intake work on a '70 base 350ci with a Holley spread bore?

Did a search to see what else might pop up.  Quite a selection and quite a price range.  Even found one with a Holley carb attached (starting bid $90).
 
Tally ho...!!!

Another option is the Edelbrock 2101 non EGR or the Edelbrock 3701 EGR ready model.

I bought the 3701 model on Ebay for $75.00 to the door. This model is choke ready and has a cover plate for the EGR valve if you choose not to use it.

It took some diligent watching to pick this up for the price but patience is one of my character traights.

Edelbrock also makes some really nice polished models on the above series but you will most likely pay $40 - $50 more for them.

Happy hunting Jim!!! Tuxblacray2009-03-11 06:17:29
