They were listed in the 50's and 60's in the Almquist catalogs,Ed Almquist had His own intakes cast back then what happened to them is a good question.According to Google Ed may still be around up in Pennsylvania,He was an interesting man and there is some good reading about Him.I bought some flathead goodies from His catalogs back in the day. Several months ago Ryan posted pictures from a vintage Almquist catalog on the Jalopy Journal you can see the manifold listings there,dont think you can get one for $34.95 though LOL!

… I have an old Y Block Edmonds 2 deuce intake; but I think it has 4-bolt Carbs; to confirm I just spent the past 2 hrs looking for it, but no luck yet.
You have to have 3-bolt carbs?

Im sure it wouldn't be too hard for a fabricator on here to make an adaptor to go from 3 bolt to 4 bolt out of alum plate ??? ken ct.

Mike
I will be tied up on a business deal for 2 weeks; after that I'll look for it.
As far as the price? I haven’t laid eyes on it in 20 years, so condition will dictate.
