Hi All
Found this one on eBay, I am not posting the link in the auction area as I want to know is this a set up for a car or boat. The angle or the carbs leads me to think it might have been for a boat.

I have never seen a tripple set up like this one.

Ebay Item #370048210774

Cheers Jim

Jim I am thinking the same as you looks like a boat manifold but can't see why it would not work on a car with some milling or tapered bosses under the carbys.  I just sold a red marine set up and the manifold was flat and it had tapered adaptors to correct the carby angle.....FC427.....

Tawco marine products have"Suit First Holden" on their manifolds. I am thinking that this is a Tawco manifold designed to fit  under an engine cover and therefore be very close to the engine. Tawco manifolds also come with two blanking plates, so that the manifold can be used with either single, twin or triple carbs.

I bought this manifold and on inspection it is the marine manifold with the exhaust water cooled section cut off.
