well; "done" might be alittle stretch. my friend finished Tig welding the pieces i made. it was bolted to a spare manifold for all heating/welding/post-heat/cooling.
plan on doing alittle port matching, then the first test will be to blank off end carbs and see how good it starts/runs with just a center carb. (one that currently running fine now)
another edit? another link to a page i have, link will shut down if too much data transfer happens, but there are a few pictures of the manifold here http://www.geocities.com/ford52f3/78ford
