I replaced the intake manifold on our 75 PB with the new aluminum one, mostly to get rid of the exhaust cross-overs. If anyone needs an original 455 intake manifold, they can have mine. AFAIK, it's in fine shape...no cracks, not modified in any way. PM me if you are interested. I'd prefer not to ship it, but if you can make arrangements for me to drop it off somewhere that will package it and send it out, I'll do so. I'm in Westland, MI.

I'm also interested in the manifold. I have a 455 engine in the process of being rebuilt and my manifold has a large vertical crack in one of the carburetor ports the thickness of the casting. Is the manifold still available?

Let’s try thing again -
I have an original 455 intake for free. It was magna fluxed and is good.
Originally I thought Ken Burton had it, but it seems he has a different one.
So, it’s in Wheeling, WV.
Who’s up next?

OK, I think I figured this out. There are two manifolds. One from Dave and one from Dolf.
I got PMs from Dave and emails from Dolf. I thought I was talking to the same person on both.
So I will take the one from Dave leaving the one from Dolf still available. I'm sorry for the confusion. I think I have it straight now.

Dolf,
If no one else has a vested interest in your 455 intake manifold, I would appreciate it. Any idea as to the best way to ship and cost to zip code 43558?

Ken,
You never responded to my offer to bring the manifold to Goshen.
Matt
I did not know that I had deadline to respond.
Yes, that is a great idea. Do it and I'll notify you if something changes between now and then. Goshen is around 100 miles vs. 250 for me to go to Westland. Just let me know when and where to meet you.
Thanks.

Dolph,
Did you get my PM? Are we still good to meet in a couple of weeks for a meal and manifold pick-up?
