Looking to buy: Buick Intake Manifold 4 bbl

Anyone out there have a spare Intake Manifold for a 4 bbl carb set up, I am looking for one to fit on my Rover 3.5L. Let me know what you have if any. If not, off to Summit Racing I guess.

Thanks!

Michelle,

You won't find one at Summit. They will have an Edelbrock Buick/Rover manifold. It is about 5/8-3/4" taller than a factory Buick manifold, in case you are looking to use a stock hood.

There is one on Ebay.

Thanks Carl, I will put that on the watch list. I must have missed that one when I did a few searches. I do plan to change the hood eventually as I picked up a MGC hood skin from Tim Nagy, but I was hoping to wait until fall to do that.

In that case, the Edelbrock Is a bit better manifold. It will cost you more, though.

Well I went ahead and picked this one up to see if I can get it to work, in the end we plan to use the FI that came with the engine. I have to find a computer set up for it though.
