How Many Intake Manifold Choices for a 1965 330
Will the Performer Olds 350, Edelbrock part #2711 fit a 65 330? How about the Performer RPM #3711? The Summit application guide doesn't show any intakes for the 64-65 330. It shows that they will fit the 66-67 330. Even the Edelbrock website says (1966-85) 307-330-350-403. Is there something different about the 64-65 330? What aftermarket aluminum Small Block Olds intakes will fit a 65 330?

ALL 330 and 350 Olds motors are exteranlly identical. Any intake that fits one will fit the other. The 1964 330s have the one-year-only shaft-mount rocker arms, but that has no effect on intake mounting.
Edit: The only thing that MIGHT be an issue is accessory bracket mounting. The 1964 motors used one-year-only accessory brackets, and the aftermarket intakes may not have all the correct mounting bosses for the brackets.

Just passing throughand caught this. Good point Joe. I was planning on putting the PS setup from my old 65 VC on my 64 coupe. I had better double check to see if it'll bolt up with no other mods.

Hey Joe, thanks for that information. I was hoping they were the same. When a catalog or manufacture fitment guide doesn't match what I thought was true, it kind of throws me. Good thing I can come to ClassicOldsmobile and ask!

The 64's used a water pump with the inlet on the other side compared to the '65 and later cars... I think if you used the 350 water pump/brackets and a '65-up radiator you'd be OK. But that would be a little more work.
