[Found!] Aluminum 4-bbl dual plane intake

Looking for a used intake in decent shape to convert my old truck from 2-bbl to 4-bbl; Edelbrock Performer or Performer RPM or a Weiand Action Plus or Stealth or similar.

So what are you using the truck for? If it's hauling stuff and you are really looking for bottom end torque, I would suggest you look for an Edelbrock SP2P. It is a narrow runner four barrel manifold that was designed for trucks, vans, motor homes. I had one on my 73 D150 (god rest her soul) and could pull stumps and steep grades, especially off road. They are cheap as hell because you wouldn't put one on your small block street machine.

I’ve got a cast thermoquad intake you can have for 10$ plus shipping. It’s got a new thermostat housing, thermostat and spread to square adapter. Pm me if interested.

It will occasionally tow my Duster on a trailer (~5000 lbs?) but honestly most of the time it'll probably be driven unloaded. It's the 72 D200 in my sig, it has a strong-running 360 and 3.55 gears but 33" tires so not the best for towing but I don't think it'll be too bad, the 727 obviously has no overdrive and freeway traffic moves 65-80 mph depending on the area. I've seen the SP2P intake I think that's a bit extreme, runners are narrower than the stock 2-bbl intake lol. It currently has enough grunt to me I'd like to have more mid-range and higher "redline" for pulling up some of the steeper grades at speed it takes a while to accelerate past about 70 unloaded as-is.
