Edelbrock DP4B intake question

[bull]

There's two different types for big blocks, right? One for the 361-383-400 and one for the 413-426 wedge and 440?

[Ghoste]

Yes, one for B (383 low deck) and one for RB (440 raised deck or raised block).

Yes, one for B (383 low deck) and one for RB (440 raised deck or raised block).

Exactly. The dp4b is a 383-400 manifold. The ch4b is a 413-440 manifold. Both are dual plane designs and work very well

Awesome Curtis ! That is an original over the counter "Direct Connection" speed part from the late 70's....very cool. 

Notice that it has a Mopar part number cast into it....that makes it a fairly rare piece and it's in fantastic shape too !

Really? That's cool. I kind of wondered about that number because I didn't recall seeing it on any of the other Edelbrock intakes I've been scoping.

Yep, that is a factory "speed part" just like the 6-pack manifolds that were also sold over the counter at your local dealer back in the Direct Connection days. 

I haven't seen one of those in many years...and certainly not in that nice of shape....major score dude !

  Now I can tell everyone it's been on there since 1977. Thanks for the info, Ron. It's little trivia facts and long-shot scores like this that make the hobby a lot of fun for me. The fact that I scored it on accident makes it even better. Reminds me of the "wrong" radiator I bought that ended up being correct for a T/A Challenger/AAR Cuda.

[Ghoste]

It's kind of like having one that is still factory correct.
