It looks like that part number is coming up as 68, like you said. My guess would be 1/21. Never saw one with an X but a quick search on the part number returned several pictures with an X or - between the month and day.

That would be my best educated guess. Jan 21st.

Thank you. I have a few different intakes and water pumps and w/p housings like that. Kim

Chris do u know the SPD your car was built? Anything about 3 months earlier will work for you. Kim

I’m not positive I have the date format correct. Your fender tag is C30, I think that’s Dec 30th. Happy BDay to your car today.
If I did the intake correctly, you car was built before the install was cast.
Again, assuming I have it right.
See if some other chime in.

Build sheet says 12.30.67

oldkimmer · Dec 30, 2020

Then I think u need an earlier intake. But it does depend on when it was actually built. Kim

engine stamp says 12.26 67 so i need an intake earlier ?
