383 six pack intake?

[BB BEEPER]

Ok, Did ma MOPAR ever make a 6 pack intake for a 383, low deck B motor. I know there are some aftermarket 3-2 barrel intakes for the 383.
If they did make them were they aluminum or cast iron?
Thanks in advance for the information.

Not factory. Edelbrock made them for a few years. I have one new in the box still. They are aluminum.

Then, if someone had a cast iron, 6 bbl intake with a cast date of 11-5-69, would that be for a B or RB motor?

For an RB. Specifically, a 440.

Rb only for 70 cast iron intakes.

From various websites (bare manifold):
Cast iron 440 4bbl intake: 38.6 lbs; TBV
Cast iron 440 3x2 intake: 41 or 42 lbs
Cast aluminum 440 3x2 intake: 22.2 lbs

TBV: To Be Verified

Cast aluminum 3x2 intake: 22.2 lbs

Is that a 440 6 pack manifold weight or a 383?

Oh, sorry. For a 440 six pack. Updated above.

I'll weigh my bare 383 3x2 intake tomorrow and post a follow-up.

Found a picture of a 440 3x2 cast iron manifold on the scales.

It shows 54.6 lbs

Cast number 2946276 for cast iron.

@Mopar Hunter

20.4 lbs for my cast aluminum Edelbrock DP6B...383 6 pack / 6 barrel intake manifold.

 

[Mopar Hunter]

2 pounds lighter than the 440 3X2 intake.

 

[DeltaV]

Also, the aluminum Edelbrock DP6B for the B engines is more than 17 lbs lighter than the cast iron 2951666 used on my 1970 383 HP.

37.7 lbs cast iron (with 2 light coats of paint)
20.4 lbs cast aluminum (bare)
________
17.3 lbs

____________________________________________

The second digit looks like an '8', not a '9', but casting number 2851666 does not show up as an intake manifold in a Google search. Intake casting number 2951666 shows up all over the www.

Note: The black is not carbon. It is a proprietary rust converter I used back in the 1980's.
