351c Turbo Intake Manifolds

[grego37]

I just picked up a set of Turbo Int Manifols for a 351c on a package deal of a bunch of stuff I bought, and im trying to get a little history on these, These are brand new, no brand names, no markings , no casting info. they are polished aluminum. They are 2 seperate pieces, with nothing to cover the lifter valley. The intake ports dont look quite as big as a 4v port, but there is plently of material for port matching.I think they may be 1 off's (custom made) I was told they were set up for the hilborn type injectors. Maybe one of you Pantera guys might know something. Dan Jones , are you out there?
I tried searching the internet, ebay and cant find anything.
I will be selling these soon, just trying to get some feedback, so I can list them properly.
I would post a pic, but this forum is not pic friendly and wont accept it.
I guess I can email pics for anyone who really wants to see them.
thanks

Hmmm, wonder if they are the manifolds my buddy was trying to sell. It's the only set of twin EFI manifolds made of aluminum for turbos I've ever seen.
If they were his, they were custom made. Did you buy them from Ca ?

10sec,
I got these last night from a local guy near Pomona CA, along with some other Ford parts, I got him to throw them in on the deal.
However, he said he recently aquired these from a guy in the san diego area.

Sounds like we're talking about the same set of manifolds, they are beautiful, an excellent display of craftsmanship, someone spent allot of time making these. I may decide to build me a Cleveland just so I can show these off, I dont know?
Just trying to get more info. right now
thanks for the reply
