Odds of finding a bathtub intake?

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

what are the odds of finding and buying a hemi bathtub intake manifold?-MATT

[Troy]

You're the expert - you tell us. I'm gonna guess that the odds of you buying one are slim. The odds of finding one are better.

Did you try Ray Bartons place or Landys?

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

were they only made in 1969-70? or do people still produce them?-MATT

[hemigeno]

Out of curiosity, what do you think they came on?

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

i know they were specifically used for hemi engines in nascar rangin from say 1969-1974  -MATT

I can find some picture of one, but no guarantee's on finding one that someone could purchase.

[Troy]

Finding one isn't so hard:
Long eBay link
See second item down

FYI - I don't see anything after 1965 that would qualify as the "bathtub" style.

I should also mention that these would be nearly useless on a street-driven car.

I would get the hemi first before spending 3k on an intake

But it would make a lovely coffee table peice.....

[69_500]

Well lets be logical here, thats $3,000 for the intake, and another $4,000 for the air cleaner. So all in all how bad is $7,000 for the top of a HEMI?

[hemigeno]

Hey but that includes the 4160 series carb too, don't forget!

What a bargain!!!!

[69_500]

Heck yeah its a bargain. Now if I can talk my wife into $7,000 for christmas I'll be set. Then all I have to do is explain to her after then is that I need a HEMI to mount those on.

[BigBlockSam]

it would make a nice door stop. i just have to move the tunnel ram i have sitting  there for the last 10 yrs

What car is this going in? I might have one laying around out back I could hook you up with. Post a pic of the car it's gonna go in....

[69_500]

I'd drop it in this car.

[Ghoste]

One good backfire (for which they were notorious) and you'll be able to hunt up some of those rare parts all over again. 

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

I hang out here to learn and share what I have learned with others.

Sorry I can't help you with bathtub intakes as I just learned about them myself, since you started this thread.  Never heard of them prior to this - stupid me!
