Tiger Intake Manifold

[64beam]

Hi,

I saw this while search Ebay. There would not be too many of these around. Were these the ones that were used on the Cobras?

Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUNB...005QQitemZ150310520765QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

You can still buy these from various venders, not that hard to come by!!

Robin:

Basically, the "TIGER" intake that your link refers to is the same as the "COBRA" intake you are speaking of. However, there were two different versions of the Cobra intake; a small-lettered version and a big-lettered version. The one on your link, which is the one that everyone sees, was first seen on '66 Shelby G.T. 350s. The Cobras were out of production before this "big-lettered" intake was produced. The "small-lettered Cobra" intake was utilized on the Cobra roadsters as well as the '65 G.T. 350s. I used to own a '65 G.T. 350, SFM5S421, and it was equipped with the small-lettered intake. To my knowledge, the "TIGER" intake was only available in the big-lettered version; at least, I've never seen a small-lettered version of it.

Take care,

That manifold is the same as the Edelbrock high rise F4B. Edelbrock made the high rise for Shelby. There is also a low rise manifold with "Tiger" cast into it in the same location on the manifold. This one may have the small letters for "Tiger". I don't know who made the low rise manifold but they do show up on Ebay once in a while.

The LAT3 low rise maniflow is a copy of the Shelby part with Cobra replaced by Tiger on the front runner. Has the Shelby part number cast into it and is the same otherwise.
