Title: wtb grey motor twin carb manifold
Post by: JSM on August 15, 2009, 12:37:39 PM
G'day

I'm looking to buy a twin carb manifold to suit down draft style carbs i.e. stromie's for a grey motor. I'd also consider other types of multi-carb manifolds i.e. triples in side or down draft but preference is for the twin setup. 
I'd prefer something bare i.e. no carbs but would consider a whole set up and would appreciate it if you would be willing to post it to me if not from close by (Wollongong area).

PM me if you have one that you think i'd be interested in that your willing to part with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Cheers
John

Cheers for that mate!,

I'd seen these... the Cain one I think is a bit over priced  :-\
I don't really like the look of the other one... Have you / anyone had any experience with the performance of the monaro motors ones? Do they flow alright?

Cheers

G'day all

Still on the hunt however I've changed my mind after some discussion with a few people and I'm after a Manifold to suit triple down draft strombergs or a twin side draft manifold (suit Grey motor). I understand that these are probably few and far between but anyone with one of these two types of manifold willing to part with it please send me a PM or email me at jm712@uow.edu.au.

I understand that due to these types being rarer they fetch a higher price, I will pay good money for a manifold in good usable condition (even if I have to clean it up a bit).

Any help would be greatly appreciated! There has to be some out there!

Cheers
John
