Im getting a lake cities manifold! woo hoo!

I wanted to post this a few days ago, but my internet at works been really screwy, but anyway.

Im about to buy a lake cities manifold that was used with a 48dhla. I havnt decided which carb im going to use yet. Can someone tell me if the ports on a 45 dcoe will match the ports on a 48 dhla? I know the bolt patterns are the same, im just not sure on the ports.


Here is a pic of the manifold:




Also if anyone has pics of your lakecities set up. Ide would sure like to see them.

-Shawn

that manifold will not flow enough for a 48! that manifold was designed to work best with a 45! a 45 is more than enough for a stock port 12a! dont go to big, that will just kill all your low end and the stock ports dont flow top end anyways!!!

p/s where are you getting your weber? how much?

He got it here:

Gotta stay on top of the for sale forum. Good stuff all the time. I just wish I could have got the supension that Autoxr had on there back in the day. If whoever purchased it decides to not install it, they should contact me, cause I will guarantee they won't lose a penny from what they paid.

The guy used to run a 48dellorto, into a bridgy with that manifold. why do you think its not big enough?

I dont know where im getting the carb from. it will be a while, i need to buy other things first.
