Re: [T3] Dual port manifolds


Maybe Austrailian listies as well as UK can help. I notice in parts books
that extra casted ports are used. They have them, I assume for carb car
with full auto trans. It would be the vacume tube from the manifold to the
trans. It also apears that UK and AUS cars had two balancing tubes for
some reason.
