Most cast manifolds were originaly intended for the larger production cars. Those engines were tilted downward in rear. So those manifolds had the carb mounting flanges on a different incline, so the carbs would sit level. I have a 427 sideoiler which sits almost level in my replica. So the inline dual four tunnel wedge intake manifolds carb mounting flanges are inclined up in the rear, even more so than the incline of the hood. Is there an after market or original cast (aluminum) manifold for a FE that has the carb flange parrallel with the valve covers, single or dual fours? Not talking about one-off hand built manifold at this point and time.
