Intake Manifold can I use '68 400 4bbl intake on my '67 E block?

My '67 manifold has a few cracks in it….my '68 looks clean.
Just want to make sure everything will mate up- they look to be the same minus the choke area (depth of hole ).
THanks

Aside from the choke coil, as you note, they should be functionally the same.

You will also be able to use a thermal ported vacuum switch with the 68
if you wish. It will have the provision for it.

Any such intake will do.
Maybe move to electric choke and forget the remote coil?
If your intake is '662 J casting I could maybe trade a later 70-72 casting for it. I make the J into '69 H/O J-405233.... you can use ANY intake, I can only use J-398662.
