Default BBC Holley Strip Dominator 300-5 . . .

First Q. Why was the Winters Foundry snowflake insignia applied to the early version of this intake?
Second Q. Why did the above disappear from the later version of the 300-5 intake?
Not sure if I am in the correct part of the Forum to ask this??
Thanks in advance!!
Ted

Most likely the early ones were being cast by the Winter's Foundry and the later ones were cast somewhere else.

IIRC, Holley outsourced all their castings on intakes until they brought Weiand in house.. Been a while and Im starting to forget Holley info..
