Yep its a dual port. tell by the manifolds. dual ports have a split manifold thats connected with rubber hoses. Single ports generally have a one pice manifold

looks like dual ports to me
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

Dual port refers to the two (dual) inlet ports that enter the head.
Not so much the type of manifold it has.
As the guys have said tho,yep its a dual port.

Well the dual ports can't be seen with the inlet manifolds attached

and You cannot fit dual inlet manifolds to a single port engine....

So, the dual manifolds with the joins means it IS a dual port head...

the single ports have a one piece manifold with No joins....

This engine has the one piece yellow sinle port inlet manifold.
