Thanks...I'll keep you in mind. I am hoping to find a complete assembly that won't need painting. I might be looking for a needle in a hay stack but hey...if one doesn't look one can't find.

All of the breathers and spacers for a 4bbl carb are the same from 69-72, big block or small, they use the same part number for both assemblies. The riser tube is the hard parts and the manifold shield is impossible to find in good shape, good luck in your search.

The spacer was different if you had a high rise intake. It was shorter so you could close your hood

71 super · 03-23-2010, 09:51 PM

In order to have the tube you have to have the shield or it will not have a place to bolt to. The shield simply bolts over the drivers side manifold and the tube sits on top and attaches by way of a sheet metal type screw. Down side most rusted to nothing because a) they are thin and b) the design traps moisture. The last tube I bought was alone $60 and it was in just o.k condition, a good tube will go for at least $100 and a nice one will bring more. The shield is worth what ever a person is willing to pay if in good shape as it is one of the hardest parts for a big block to locate in good shape.

**70cst** · 03-24-2010, 04:27 PM

Someplace...Somewhere...over the rainbow I will find what I seek.

This is what you will have a hard time finding as 71 Super said. I looked for 2 years. The one in the pic I sold on Ebay. Good Luck

Sold it with nice exhaust manifolds and heat pipe. I think it went for $300

**DANTIP** · 03-30-2010, 02:27 PM

I have an NOS spacer, near perfect stove, and near perfect pipe available for a '72 big block (don't know if all years are the same). Someone else has pointed out that the air cleaner and spacer are the same for all 4-barrel carbs. Send me a PM for details and pics.

Ok questions for all you experts which I am not...

Was the Air Cleaner-Stove Pipe-Manifold Shield set up the same for a BB in 1970 verses the 71-72 model years or were they different? Was the Manifold Shield used in 1970???
Thanks in advance.
