Default Re: 1970 W30 Coupe from Canada

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Stefano</div><div class="ubbcode-body">1970 W30 Intakes are cast aluminum and the words &quot;Oldsmobile W-455&quot; are cast on to the intake. For 1971, the casting was changed to read &quot;Olds-W-455.&quot; Some late 1970 cars are said to have, &quot;Olds W-455&quot; cast on the intake.

This intake may not be correct for an early 1970?




</div></div>


Turns out that the intake is correct for this W30.


&quot;Cars built after 3 Jan 70 should have the OLDS W-455 intake. We have never seen a December BUILT car have one. The earliest casting dates are in the mid December time frame. The Early OLDSMOBILE W-455 intakes are some of the hardest to locate. We have also seen date codes as early as 13 Aug 69 on the Oldsmobile intake. &quot;
