Looking for 4-Hole F4B

[GearHead_66]

Where would a guy scare up one of the four hole F4B intakes?

Ebay or a sbf message board.

The only people looking for the 4 hole ones arw going for factory correct be it tiger or mustang falcon etc...

Chester B. Has a bunch of them but he's in Oklahoma.
IDK if they were dual plane or the , 4 hole. But you could asks him. Message sent.

I touched base with Chester. No response yet.

If I was 88 I would not get the phone every time either. I recall seeing at least 5 of them on shelves in his garage. Try search tempest a Craigslist region wide lister.

I was going to combine it with a Ford part numbered Holley 1848 (newly rebuilt) and a stock air cleaner housing with an original, and new, air filter element. Any thoughts as to what the package should go for???

Wow, that’s a pretty complete package! I wish I was in the market. Someone looking for a nice set up has one stop shopping.

 

[GearHead_66]

I'm not sure what the package is worth. Did you have a number in mind?

I thought this article would be beneficial to the group. It compares many different manifold's performance.

Thank you, that certainly is an eye opener.

I would think you would realize the most money by selling the parts separately.

Curious the perfromance difference, if any between F4B intake 4 hole vs the more common dual? Also is the 4 hole the first generation style of the F4b intake?

 

[GearHead_66]

I've been told that the four hole version is lifted from the original Shelby small block intake design. I haven't been able to verify that factoid as of yet.
There may be some performance differences, although in a fairly stock small block application, they're probably not significant.

I was just watching this video as I'm running an RPM air gap manifold.... its a long video but does talk about the F4B and performer and there are a few interesting bits of info here and there so I think it's worth watching

Yes the 4 hole was the first version.. The 2 hole performed better and later dual hole manifolds have a small balance slot at the middle top of the divider.

The unifying of intake ports happened on down draft weber manifolds as well ( 4 cyl cars). Early manifolds had individual ports.. Later combined into a single port.
