    i would guess the CJ and SCJ would be your best choice in the factory market, above is a link to one for sale. just out of curiosity what is swaying you to a factory intake? ive got an offenhouser portosonic on mine. it was rated better then the victor and super victor. and that surprised me too when i read it.


    Live everyday like it were your last, someday it will be.

    i concur with mooneye ( good name ..my last name is moon ) .. i have the portosonic on my 429 .. works great as it wont rev beyond 5700 rpm anyway .. no need for a high rpm torker or such ... my sig shows as only a link .. are sig pics not allowed ..

    Thanks for the response. We are building a tractor for a class requiring all cast iron factory parts so I'm stuck buying expensive parts for an "economy " class.

    Thanks for your answer. Building a tractor with class rules requiring factory cast iron heads and manifold.

    Iron CJ is the way to go. And if the rules allow you to modify it, then even better.

    The iron CJ in the link above is a great deal, for $100. I've seen them sell for twice that.

    Please note, these things are heavy and the shipping will kill ya.
