What options are out there besides the original SixPack stuff, the repop stuff and the B engine manifold from Edelbrock?
I thought Offenhouser made one long ago, anyone else?

I should have been clearer, I'm looking for used stuff. Hey I got a family to support. Just wondering what to look for.

Do you want looks or performance?

It's going to be somewhat expensive, no matter which route you go. Probably your best bet is a good used Edelbrock aluminum , or original cast iron intake, both very easily available at swap meets and e-bay . Most expensive route would be the Edelbrock STR 14 with 3 x 2 top plate . As far as the Offenhauser, the only ones I am familiar with are set up for either strombergs or webbers ?
Greg This Offy intake looks like it has a Holley carb bolt pattern. Then, how about 3 Rochester carburetors?

Carb bolt pattern looks wrong. Dunno. But this one for sure, is for Stromberg's. OP, both of these Offy intakes are awful performers The open plenum 360 designs ruin the low speed throttle response on these intakes as well as all the single four barrel and dual four barrel intakes Offy made The old and older two barrel carbs they where design for aren't worth using in todays world the three bolt are for the early, pre 1958, Stromberg Carlson and older Holley two barrels, the four bolt patter is for the early low CFM flowing Rochester GM two barrel carbs, the later bigger ones where a liitle bit better but no where as good as the later Holley 2300 type two barrel carbs use on both Mopar 440 and Chevy 427 Corvettes starting in 1967 and the earlier 390 and 406 Fords back in 1961,1962 and 1963

I have and have used all 3 styles. Sadly the production Edelbrock works the best. On a street driven car,no contest. Edelbrock

I agree with bigmoney.... the cheapest will be an aftermarket Edelbrock aluminum which cost about $410 new...maybe cheaper if you can find a used one.
