Just got off the phone with Mike at Pierce Manifolds. Yes the new 48 IDAs are out; they will retail for $589.00 at Pierce and they should be arriving in about two weeks. He said the only difference he new of at this time is that they use bolts instead of studs and nuts on the top. He also said he thinks the float is still brass!

I have no relationship with Pierce, other than a customer who loves the looks of Weber 48 IDAs
