W-31 manifold needed

Need a 1970 W-31 intake manifold. Will pay fair market value plus insured shipping to Sweetgrass MT. Any production date considered. Not sure of my production date off hand but I know the car was shipped from Lansing on April 7 1970 so a February or March production date would be awesome.


Manifold must be clean & straight with no cracks & not have or need any heilicoils.


PM me with details & price.


Lots of parts on hand if you are looking to trade for something you need rather than take all my cash.


Thanks in advance.

manifold

Hi again Dave;
I have known Dennis for many years - outstanding guy!
He has been building/parting out Olds for YEARS & has a tremendous amount of parts(ie: over 100 engines).
So I would vouch for his description of the manifold.
Sorry, I moved to Ottawa so I cannot check it out.
He is only 20 minutes from ur old digs in Alliston - so maybe a trip home lols.

Thanks Dick I will give him another call.


I will be in Alliston for a week in early June. My Dad turns 80 this spring & I want to spend Father's day with him.

Spoke with Dennis last night. He has a W-31 intake & is willing to sell it to me. Waiting on pictures & price. Thanks for the lead Dick.


Anyone else with one for sale please send me a PM. I need one for sure & might buy a second if price is right. Also have big parts inventory if you are looking to trade for what you need.

Manifold found & purcahsed

Hey Dick


Thanks for the lead on the W-350 intake. I received pictures of a very nice untouched W-350 intake from your lead & was able to buy the manifold at a fair price.


Thanks again


Dave
