Rawles inlet manifold

Looks nice, but is it worth the $611 plus shipping?
I wonder if all SU's will bolt right up to it, and do you still need the spacers?

It wouldn't be a crime to bolt a 1-3/4" SU to a 2" manifold, but you sure wouldn't want to go the other way.

The spacers are more insulator/isolators than spacers, to minimize any heat soak; aluminum being such a wonderful conductor of heat and all :wink:

Almost anything would have to be an improvement over the stock manifold.
I think that would depend on what stock manifolds you are referring to. :laugh: My personal opinion would be a set tri-carb manifolds would be better than both offerings from Rawles.

NICAL in UK also has triple manifolds for 2"HD8 carbs.

A fellow Healey owner asked them about performance. They said that it was as good as triple carbs - but then, they would, wouldnt they !
