Default Laust's Vacuum Manifold GB

Hey guys, I was looking to buy one of his 5-port two banjo bolt vacuum manifolds and sorta sparked a renewed interest in his VERY nice product. I'm not sure of the exact construction and maybe he can chime in as far as that. The options as far as VMs is as follows:

4-port single banjo
5-port single banjo
5-port double banjo

If there are any other variations I'm sure he'll post them. I'm ordering a 5-port double banjo VM. Laust, could you please post your current supply so I don't mess things up and say you have more than you actually do!

I would like a 5-port dual-banjo VM if there are any left. It worked great on my other 951 and allows for better vac line routing and equipment. Just let me know when and how to pay.

In his response to the origional thread he said he had 4 5-port dual banjo bolt VMs left, so theres enough for the three of us. That makes only 1 5-port dual banjo VM unclaimed. As long as laust recognizes this. Heres a list:

Bonestock951s - 5-port dual banjo
KuHL 951 - 5-port dual banjo
reno808 - 5-port daul banjo

That sound correct?

BTW, both of you have early 951s, why do you need the double banjo version?

I use the 2 banjo bolts for the KLR and a dedicated boost gage. The other ports were used for the venturi delete with no spares. I eliminated all the plastic tubing under the hood on mine.

Did you drill another hole into the intake manifold?

I am going to be getting a 5 port single banjo bolt from Laust.

However, he pm'ed and said that he does not currently have any of that type left and that I would have to wait until he made a new batch of manifolds if that is what I wanted.

So anyone looking for the 5 port, single bb will have to wait.

Thanks for the heads up, I've never owned one past an 86. The black car has a later manifold on it. The project car is a stock 86 manifold that I've already polished. Change mine to a 5-port single if you still can. It's not worth swapping. I'll split a vac line if I have to but I should be OK.

Laust has contacted me about passing the production off to me. I told him that I wanted to take it on, I will asses the project hopefully later tonight.

This is all still up in the air, so anything is subject to change. I am excited about offering another product though, I should be able to make them in volume...........

I dont think you can go wrong with these things. They cant be that expensive to produce if Laust was selling them for 25 bucks, and obviously there is mucho demand for them.
