Factory aluminum intake casting number 3933163 and dated 3-6-69 or possibly the last number is a 8. Cleaned and ready to go with just one heli-coil in the thermostat only and no modifications in excellent original condition $450. Any questions I can be reached at 330-770-2517 and can send pictures with a email address and shipping is not a problem.

Dennis, from my experience with these intakes, if it has small numbers for the casting date, it's a 1968 as they went to larger numbers sometime early in 1969.

After sending over some pictures and getting a second opinion the date size is smaller so I believe this is a 3-6-68 dated intake.

That has to be one of the earliest versions of that intake....I have a May/68...only other date I have seen is June/68.

This is a 1969 intake with large font.
'69 intake (http://www.ebay.com/itm/68-69-Camaro-Chevelle-Nova-SS-396-Aluminum-Intake-Manifold-L78-3933163-6-6-69-/381437727967?hash=item58cf75d4df:g:dsAAAOSwsB9WDT8 j&vxp=mtr)
This is a 1968 intake with the small font.
'68 intake (http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Big-Block-Chevy-396-427-Rectangle-Port-Aluminum-Intake-3933163-163-9-25-68-/331682007324?hash=item4d39c9c91c:g:FcgAAOSw14xWHwq Q&vxp=mtr)
Now, I'm not sure when it started but I'm pretty confident that Dennis' intake is a '68.....but lord knows I've been wrong before. Ask my wife. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif
