Have you tried contacting him? I got mine a few years back from stock he had hanging around. Nice piece, but never really at what went into making it.

He quit making them, might still have a few single port ones left, and Yes requires brazing...

Yes they are “hard to make” (= time consuming).

Unfortunately I have not been able to set time aside to make more and don’t see that happening in the foreseeable future either.

I knew from the start that this can only be a hobby, which pays for a good lunch once in awhile.
I have enjoyed the process of selling them “all over the world” and see you guys being happy with them.

It looks like Mike Lindsey has a good solution with the same functionality (although not as elegant ).

All that said, I have eight (8) single banjo bolt (BB) vacuum manifolds (VMs) left, some of which I can convert to dual BB VMs if needed.

I still check in here almost daily, so if anyone is interested just contact me via PM.

OT: Is your car running yet Ed? I'm worse than you on that subject but at least my knee bends now and I don't have an excuse anymore.

Hi Steve
I have been working pretty diligently on the car since Feb. It took a lot to just catch up on what I did so many years ago .... The mind nor the body work the same....
Hope your doing well .. I am not making any predictions as I would have never thought that my car would still be up on jack stands but hoping things should be going together pretty soon ...
I am plated out
Best regards
Ed
