If I were looking for a date correct 2bbl intake for the engine that is supposedly the original that I got with my car what numbers would I be looking for based on the pictures below. Or are these not he numbers I should be looking at, rather the Vin#?
Thanks

HF engine application code is 350ci/250HP L65 used with a Powerglide, which was a 2 barrrel engine.
There should be a date code on the block back on the bellhousing flange behind where the distributor would mount. That date would help you match up the block to a correct dated intake. December 18 is the engine assembly date. So intake would probably be dated 1-2 weeks before that. Maybe more. The 3932386 casting number block was used early in the 1969 model year from around August of 68 to January of 69. So you should look for an early December 68 dated intake in my opinion. I think the intake casting number should be 3927183.
