Rep Power: 5  | Weber type manifold for Yates heads
I am considering the manufacture of a Weber type billet aluminum manifold for small block Ford engines with Yates heads. This would use TWM injectors or Weber carbs. Is this of interest to you? Thanks, Al, Thor Motorsport |

Kind Regards,

And yes, by golly...I DO need it - sometimes quite badly

Hello Dean
Take a look at Kit Car September issue page 3 for another 3 piece manifold, but I don't think that it's for a SBF

Hey Dean, if you don't need any vacuum, I'll assume that there will be no electrics from Lucas on board - otherwise, you will need a vacuum port to suck up the "Lucas Smoke" !!!! 
Kind Regards,
Peter D.
