Sweet! If you are serious about selling these manifold for that kind of money I don't think you will have a problem getting rid of them. I'm in for an offy cover but count me in for the "African" intake.

Quite serious they will be cast with the Chrysler South Africa partnumber on the number 5 runner.

The air cleaner is the original used back in the day - am trying to have a mold made up for this as well but manifold first

Will you guys be interested in completed linkage sets which will ad cost, or the plans for them which will be free.

Looks RAD. Also looks a bit tall to squeeze under the hood of a 62 Valiant hehe. Maybe in the original hyperpak style-- hole cut in the hood. =)

I know the Offy 2x1 won't clear my A/C compressor.............I would have bought a Proline set up when he was in business.

Well, got my intake back from the welder, and went to see how the carbs looked on it. And the studs on the mounting pads were about 2mm more widely spaced than the holes in the carb bases. So, looks like I'm gonna have to file out the holes to a nice set of slots to fit the intake. Meanwhile, whilst cleaning out the interior of the intake, I also took a file to the outside, and removed a few of the projections that I won't be needing...namely the throttle rod pivots for early A-bodies...

I'll be waiting for this intake, and will need the linkage and possibly air cleaner as well. 8)
