Also, it seems the 3885069 changed design during it's production from 1966 to 1968. Is there any drawback to the 3 hole design over the 2 hole with plenum divider ? Is the open plenum as good for the street as the divided plenum ?
Thanks guys..
----I can give you a NO on performance on the street without the plenum divider. Simplisticly, dividerless intakes are for higher RPMs and work better with big cams etc.....Bill S
