The 18-9430 is the old manifold from the 21 stud engines, but are important to us because they are also the manifolds used on the 221 85 horse engine used on Canadian Bren gun carriers. I am in need of a pair of these (left and right) for a project I am doing for 2PPCLI.

Sorry Hanno, I put you crook there. Of course I knew about them because of carriers, as Rob points out.

I have these if they're any good.

It's the bottom one isn't it Hanno.
Of note is that this is a pair of manifolds (Mercury) that fit an LP2 /2a Carrier.

Ben, looks like the right type.

Thanks for the reply, but I have found two KTR club members here in Holland who are most likely able to help out. I will let you know if none of the options they have work out fine.

Old one on the bottom was well and truly cracked - in two places. Will save it in case someone can reweld it?

Replacement manifold is on the top, resurfaced, helicoiled plus two new studs fitted.

Excellent Hanno. I had the same problem with the Ford Lynx manifold and MLU came to the for through Tony Wheeler within days of putting the request out there. Thanks MLU.

Regards Rick.

Well, then Lynn put you on the right track! The joblotauto offer sounds like a great deal.

No worries Lynn, seems another flathead will benefit from it.
