Default Vintage Tri-Power Intake

I picked up a very nice 1959 Tri-Power intake today.

1959 was the 3rd year that Pontiac offered the Tri-Power option, however the large-base Rochester carbs were used as the secondary carbs for the first time in 1959.

Now to find a center carb and a front carb, I already have a rear carb.









Casting # 532422



Date code 'L 15 8' (December 15th 1958)
