Rare, Vintage Edelbrock C-355 Tripower, 3x2, Intake Manifold For 55-56 Sbc 265ci on 2040-parts.com
Temple, Texas, United States

Not made by Edelbrock in years, this C-355 Small Block Chevy 3- Rochester 2-barrel intake manifold is specifically for the 265 cubic inch 55-56 engine (ports are closer together than on the later SBC's). Was on a friends roadster for years, but he decided to upgrade to a 383 stroker and had to go to the Edelbrock 5419 3-deuce intake although he transferred his carbs and linkage to the new set-up----thus making this intake an orphan. Some pitting in the water passages, but a light smear of RTV on the gaskets and it never leaked in all the years it was on the roadster (the light smear of RTV also makes the removal of the gasket very easy since it usually comes off in one piece---no messy scraping of sticking pieces of gasket). All the threaded holes are good and the carb studs are still in place. the studs for the thermostat housing have been changed to a larger size and for some reason there is a bold on the bottom of the stud on the right side...it can probably be removed or just left there since it had no adverse effect on cooling over the many years he drove the car. Has not been milled or ported.

House narrowly passes scaled-back 'cash-for-clunkers' bill
Wed, 17 Jun 2009The U.S. House on Tuesday narrowly passed a scaled-back version of a bill that would give consumers cash vouchers of between $3,500 and $4,500 if they trade in their cars for newer, more fuel-efficient vehicles. The $1 billion cash-for-guzzlers proposal, modeled after successful programs in Germany and other European countries, is part of a $106 billion supplemental spending measure designed mostly to fund the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Grand National Roadster Show takes on new judging rules, rodding wins

That in itself was not necessarily the biggest news out of Pomona last weekend, however. In a hobby/passion/love affair such as hot-rodding, you'd expect a '32, '33 or '34 Ford to win.
