Default Thicksun Intake Manifolds

Is the Thicksun PM-7 manifold still being produced? If so, by whom? Failing that, does anyone know of a source for carburetor risers? Thanks in advance for any info.

There is also an early version that was made in a hi & lo riser configuration. Think it was made before WW11. I have the low riser type, that I think looks better than the PM7, but again that's me. The new PM7 is out there.

Yes, as others have said, the Thickstun PM-7 intake is still being reproduced. I bought one from Egge who at that time were ~ $100 less than most other suppliers that I contacted. I think there was a price increase about that time and Egge had not caught up yet. You may want to see what lakeheaders.com has to offer for intake risers. I just saw a displace of their products today at The Jalopy Showdown, Latimore Vally, PA. They do have some nice stuff'

Also, Vintage Speed has some risers shown on their website catalog.
