Anybody know who made this 2x4 top for the Weiand manifold? Is it available anywhere?

Very blurry picture but it appears to have WEIAND in the casting of it right in the center ???

That's what it looks like but I have never seen that top before. I thought Weiand only made a 6pack top and a single dominator top.
Don Dulmage made one similar many years ago.

If it were me and I just had to use that intake for some reason, I'd buy a 2x4 modman lid from indy and retrofit using the plenum as an adapter. They make an EFI version and a 'carb' one...use the one that best aligns the carbs.

Almost looks like someone made a "lid" for the original lid? Like they made a top plate for a 2x4 setup and grafted it onto the original Weiand lid. Then blended and smoothed the welds? Hard to see in that blurry pic, but just a possibility.

I was just going to say that, the front corner bolt for the front carb looks like it's welded in place? It wouldn't be hard to make that top out on whatever top one has .

I have both the 6pk and single dominator lids and years ago considered opening up the top of the dominator lid and grafting a plate on top for 2x4. The modman lid also caught my attention when it first came out.

I’ve been thinking of doing this for a few years, after checking the front holes (of top) line up with the 4 bbl primary’s and back 2 bbl line up with secondary’s of the back 4 bbl. (I could get a pic of that) Make up a plate, 1/4 to 1/2” of aluminum with the spacers,
