Mike early 67 production used the S2MS and then shortly after #300 the S7 intake came into use and was used through the rest of 67 and 68 production. The carb opening does not nessasaily mean it is a reproduction .I believe the only Cobra intakes that were reproduced were the S2 marked type that Tony Branda started having made years ago and you can always tell them because the heater hose fitting opening is too large. The carb opening issue is a early late thing on that S7 intake. Bob G.
