Not looking for anything.

I just envision a garage with some metal shelves and a crap load of intake manifolds in nice neat rows.

Guru: All of them are rectangular port and aluminum...

One Factory aluminum high rise #3933163

Two Edelbrock Tarantula TM2R manifolds and I'm watching a third (I LOVE this manifold!)

One Holley Strip Dominator single plane (thank you George Daina! ;)

One factory LS-6 low rise manifold #3963569

I am also keeping a close watch on a THIRD Tarantula and if it doesn't go too high I'll grab it too.

I recently missed out on a BRAND NEW (supposedly) Edelbrock TR2X tunnel ram when I was outbid at the last 30 seconds. That was disappointing, but not critical. The better version is the TR4X that had improved port shapes.

They are all neatly lined up on a blanky in the basement. I go downstairs every night and tuck them in :)
Just hope you DON'T get bit by the manifold collecting bug!!! It's highly addictive!

Sounds like a sweet collection

If I could find a weber manifold for a hundred bucks or so cause some moron doesnt know what they have that would be cool.

Or a crossram hilborn system, that would be sweet.
