The only info that I have is where a guy posted one up for sale on ebay in 2008. He claimed that it was a TRACO Trans Am intake manifold and was used in Trans Am racing during all of 1970 and some of '71. The guy claimed that there were only 5 or 6 made which, I find very hard to believe. I first saw the one I bought on a '70 AMX in Detroit. The guy eventually pulled it off and had it for sale at our local show so, I bought it. The general shape of the runners are really similar to the Rebel Machine intake. The top is actually 5/8" taller than the Machine intake. The part number is RD 68899. I often wondered if that was AMC's Research and Development part number or, TRACO's.

Um.. my Daughter can sell it when I am dead and gone so, you might want to talk to her.. Actually, I was thinking about putting it on my '68 AMX with the 343 (B&S to 370) DN 5 speed. Yep, it is aluminum. I am trying to find out who casted the aluminum parts for TRACO just for the heck of it. It would be cool to do a real comparison between the TRACO intake, the Machine intake and the R4B to see what the real numbers are.

Very Nice wall!!! Including the luggage racks.  The 71 cast iron is taller than the Machine one, almost like the same height comparison in the pics with a traco one. It was said not to discuss them here, just post pics, but I did not know where to add that info. Sorry Bill.  SH
