Re: [Amc-list] WANTED: six cylinder 4V intake and carb



If I was building an old school cruiser and just plain wanted the duals and cast manifolds, I try it.
The smaller manifilds have just barely enough meat to be ported out for a rounded, tapered effect if done carefully.
Now as to if it would hold up, that one is why it would be a "only if" kind of thing.
If anyone wants a set of the iron manifolds I have them here.
$50+ shipping, what I paid for them before I new about the smaller ports.
I  was still going to use them, but I didn't want to have to redo the exhaust.
