Any help would be appreciated. I thought I've searched the entire net, but I thought that maybe one of you guys might be able to give me some direction. Thanks

It's a 72, with a 225.
 
Try www.offyparts.com for an Offenhauser manifold. A little pricey, you may be able to get a better deal from Summit. Clifford Performance also makes an intake for the slant. Don't have their website offhand. These manifolds also show up on Ebay regularly, search slant 6. If you have a manual transmission, check out the Offenhauser twin carb manifold. Runs great with Holley/Weber progressive two barrels from an Escort but it would be a bear getting kickdown linkage that would work. You can get the Escort carbs new from www.stoveboltengineco.com . Hope this helps and welcome to the site.
 
Clifford and Offenhauser have been the only sources for a while, but there's also this newcomer to the market:

The Aussiespeed Hurricane.

There's also a guy who has been casting a couple from South Africa. I've heard of both being imported but not much in the way of comparisons.
 
If it's a pure street car stick with an Offy. It gives up some top end power to the Clifford, but has more low end.
 
Yeah, for sure try Clifford. If you want to run the /6 in colder climate I recommend the water heated 4 bbl intake. It runs the heater hoses through the intake to warm it up a little. Pretty sweet set up.
