You search here for 5 minutes, you can probably find a dozen pics of L98 intakes...

I got haynes in another room, but I'm doin' my phys rehab bike at the moment.

it should be a round stamp that looks like a clock.. or it could just be numbers like g86 for aug 1986... its somewhere on the manifold. all castings have a date stamp.. not sure how they looked in the 80's but there are not many numbers on the manifold. maybe someone can chime in
