Early 351C engines got a square bore intake manifold and a square bore
4300A carb. Sometime in 1971, the switch was made to low compression open
chamber heads, spread bore 4300D carb and the Cobra Jet camshaft. The
4300D is a spread bore version of the 4300A. The classic Autolite square
bore carb is the 4100 and is a completely different design.

Guys,
Doing a garage cleanup and stumbled across Lori's original 1971
Pantera intake and carb.
I always believed that Panteras came with spread-bore intakes and
Autolite 4300D carbs. But this intake is a square bore with matching
Autolite square bird carb.
