1967 tri-power intakes question/help

[larry linkous]

What are the differences in a 400hp intake without A.I.R. and a 400hp intake that has A.I.R. ?/ I know the A.I.R has two vacuum ports but what are the other differences and can a non A.I.R. be turned into a A.I.R. intake?? Also I see a Corvette supplier now has GM permission to reproduce the tri-power intakes and they look very nice.

Both K-19 and standard used the same casting; with K-19, the second hole below the center carb had a pressed-in nipple for the hose to the mixture control valve, and on a non-K19, the hole had a plug in it instead of a nipple.

Which supplier is reproducing the 3x2 intake?

Thanks John, so I can buy a non AIR and add the nipple?? Any ideas as to where to get the nipple. Coffman Corvette is reproductng them in Mansfield Ohio, where I live. They had them at Carlisle. If you want let me know and I can get some info locally, they are just two minutes from work. Thanks Larry
