And the hipos (with the 4 barrel intake) would be the only ones with the beefy main caps, for this year, right?

Cool. Thanks for the second opinion. Now I know for sure

brianproctorla_old · HIPO intake tag question brianproctorla_old February 19, 2011 at 7:23 AM

Hello, I have a set of 65 hipo heads (double 289 dot, screw in studs, raised spring seats). I also have the intake manifold that came with.

Here is the question. The manifold still has the ID tag, but someone told me that this was not a HIPO tag.

The tag says

289 65 7

5-c 552-j

It's hard for me to believe that a 4 barrel intake, numbers matching, would not have been mated with the heads from the factory. The previous owner stated that he bought the car new

This is a two barrell block. Is there any chance a two barrell would have the hipo caps?

I am looking at a C4OE6015F engine. Mustangtek has this listed as a HIPO block, and unlinke other HIPO blocks (65+), there is no other applcations (other than HIPO) listed. Are all of these blocks HIPO?

I just got my 1965 289 k code intake back from cleaning at the machine shop. The aluminum bowl that rests on the underside (not sure of the name) which is held on my the carb studs has a small hole in it. The hole is on the tip of a singular small bevel at the bottom (looks like a nose). Should this be patched? replaced?

I was looking at ended auctions on eBay and noticed a 65 dual point sold for much higher than later years (6 times). Is there a reason?
