    Look on E-Bay under intake manifolds and carbs. They have a pretty good selection of used parts.
    Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!

    Thanks for th info !!

    I really appreciate it, I've been looking on ebay and will keep doing that. I bid on a 3x2 manifold with 1 carb, won't know for a day or two how that turns out.

    Thanks

    Again

    You have to watch out for those setups on ebay. A lot of them have generic carbs in all three spots, but to work properly, the front and rear carbs are different. Either you need specific front and rear carbs for the tri-power (expensive) or you will need to modify the generic carbs to work correctly. Be careful not to overpay for a complete setup if it doesn't have the real tri-power carbs on the front and rear.
