new manifold needed.....go figure

[PatS....]

A few years back I was moving from Ohio to Pennsylvania. I had a fresh 5 gallon can of the good carburetor cleaner. I re-sealed the bucket as best as I could and placed it inside a Stainless parts washing cabinet I had at the time. I clearly marked on all sides of the cabinet "DO NOT TIP" and had arrows pointing upwards. You would think that the people getting paid good money to ship household goods would read and follow such warnings. The guy who made an attempt to load this parts washing cabinet grabbed it by the top and swung the legs out front and started walking to the truck. The carburetor cleaned soon migrated down the front of his pants. He had the cleanest willie on the block. Had to loan him a pair of my sons pants and re-connect the clothes washer to clean him up. I was not able to move the carburetor cleaner.

Thanks for the morning chuckle, Don!!! :D

why does no one make a repo or new manifold?

I have an extra set out here in CA. If you cannot find what you want you can have my extra set for the freight. I think they are usable and will have some one check before sent if you decide you want them. I need a carburetor.

smebody had a good idea of taking SBC and cutting off the far tube and it almost fits..or does it? makes a good dual set-up.
