I have this intake on my 351W mated to a 4bbl Edlebrock carb.

I am going to do a rebuild here soon. Is this a good intake manifold?

I remember when I had my old 2.9L ranger, the offenhauser manifolds were really rare, and I think only used overseas on the V6 cars. I believe I read that somewhere...

Anyways, the Offenhauser Manifold, any good?

Yes Offies are good stuff. Not saying that there isn't better out there to date but they are generally good. Have never had one on a 351w but had one on a Mopar 360 and it worked really well

I had one on my 67's 289 with reworked heads. I it was pretty good. I think they are all pretty comparable (edelbrock/offy/FMS)

Offy's are just not as popular as they were in the 50's and 60's might be maeketing but they still sell new manifolds. I'd use it as they are usually way better than stock 4V manifolds

I have the 351w offy in the garage. It appears to be camparable to a performer, but the offy has the holes to bolt down a q-jet without any adapter. I did have to bore out the manifold a little for the secondaries. Im hoping to test it out soon. Then I don't need hood scoop.

Some have 8 holes to bolt the carb to like steveL said you don't need an adapter for a Qjet.
