First day, and I dug out an old intake manifold!

I'm new to the hobby, and I just bought a White's Goldmaster 24K. I was testing in out in the ravine behind my house, and I found this thing buried about a foot deep. I hosed it down, and I found out that it's an intake manifold from a late-1940s Ford V8 Flathead engine. I saw it listed on eBay for $100

Nice find!

It's for a six cylinder engine. Thanks for posting. Welcome to tent from s.c. marion

Nope, it's for a V8.

Yup, thanks - I added a few details to my profile. I live at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains in the northern suburbs of Los Angeles, so I'm hoping to dig up and show all of you a one kilogram gold nugget within the next couple of months

Im in Fullerton. San Gabriel is a very old town (for California) Lots of cool stuff in the dirt there. Including gold.
