Re: Intake Manifold

Problem: I found the correct manifold #3795397 Alum. I ordered the listed carb #3269 Carter AFB. Not close to fitting on this manifold. Is there different models of the same number I have the 3269S H-1

Robert -

What's the nature of the fit problem? Linkage interference, or ?? Can you post a photo?

Re: Intake Manifold

The base is a full 7/8" to wide left to right not close to fitting Not sure how to post a picture.

Re: Intake Manifold

I believe that it should be fitting just fine. It should mount on the inner set of holes not the outer. When mounted, the butterflies should open fine, etc.

Can you post pictures of the front and back of carb. I'm no carb expert (hopefully one of them will jump in) but that does not look like a 3269. Can you see any other numbers on rhe carb?

Do the holes in the carb base line up with the manifold?

Re: Intake Manifold

Yep...holes line up..Carb. works fine...here's pic on dyno

Hope you're wrong about this not being a 3269...purchased from Chicago Corvette 2-1/2 years ago...was relieved when it functioned ok.
