Small Block Cast Iron Intake Part Missing

Easy lemondata, the underrated 318 has feelings too, she tends to get revved up over comments and thinks she can do it! You’d prob be surprised to know this same truck towed my 440-6 Cuda to many local events in early 80’s w 225/6! Guess depends on definition of underpowered as I don’t recall passing many on a 2-lane. I should mention I had trans built with adjusted ratios. At worst, I’ll drop to a 3.55 or 4:10.
LOL.... I knew a guy who towed a 2600 lb race car cross country hundreds of miles with an Aspen wagon and a 225, and a 3-on-the- tree manual.
