Unfortunately, I won’t be making the trip past Chicago for the D4B after all… after driving the family 18+ hours for the manifold and a few other parts I’m road tripping for… I just can’t justify another 10 hours to go get it. Sad face.
However, if twodog45 is still on the hunt for that specific manifold I do have the information and contact with the seller. As of the last we spoke, he will NOT part out or ship, and wants to sell as a total package, an edelbrock D4B, a cast factory Mopar 4 barrel and a set of heads. All early 64-65 on FBMP. So maybe if you’re closer than I am or willing to drive further it might just work out for you and you could end up with what I understand to be one of the Holy Grails of the early 273 manifolds. Best of luck!
Send me a PM and I’ll get you going on the link in you’re interested. Welcome to the group twodog45! You came to the right place!
