Need a 1bbl carb insulator plate (item 2) and the 3 intake collars (A, B, C) for my 65 F engine. If you have and are willing to part with, please let me know. Appreciate the help.

Those intake collars are hard to find. I made a batch out of titanium years ago when I worked in the 3D rapid prototype field.

I gave a bunch away, maybe someone in the club still has a set?

Its too bad that F engine i made them for got scrapped by oleg. Had those titanium collars in it, a perfect intake and a minty fresh I barrel carb I had rebuilt. Doh! :homer:

Hi L34dean,

Hey, I was able to source the base plate via Mud. Still need the collars, tho. And either way, I really appreciate the support.

Yep, keeping the rig stock, the way my uncle bought her new in 67. But them parts are gettin darn hard to find!

A metal fab shop can make those collars pretty easily if you have the manifold there to take some measurements.
