    WTB: Conversion manifold for a18 head to mount 2 webber DCOE's

    I am in diar need of a dual webber sidedraft conversion manifold for an A18 head that is going on my a20 block and into my 2g lude. I think TWM inductions used to make these and maybe peirce manifolds. Also, if anyone has carbs, that'd be cool too. If they need rebuilt, that's fine. I am capable of doing that. Please PM me !

    Hate to bear bad news but twm has stoped making manifolds. I've been told that pierce bought that side of the buisness but as far as I know they are not making manifolds right now. I don't know if they have any old stock. The links are http://www.webercarburators.com/ and http://www.twminduction.com if you don't have them handy. There was a guy on here who was trying to sell a twm a18 manifold and a pair sk dcoe copies for the longest time. I don't know if he still has them or is even around any more.

    I am aware twm does not make the manifold anymore. And i am also aware peirce bought that division of twm. Peirce makes a single down draft carb conversion, but no dcoe's. So im looking fo a used setup. I think i pmed funkytuge about a month or 2 ago , but no reply, so im guessing no dice there.

    There was someone on the board making manifolds for the A20 / JDM B20 since the intake flange is the same for both motors, he put duals on his B20 swap... he might be able to make some for the A18 as well or since you have the A20 block... you might consider swapping back to the A20 head and using his manifold.

    I am running the a20 head right now, but since i have the a20a3 that came in the 2nd gen lude, it's an 8.8:1 CR. I have an extra motor that came out of my old lude that i am rebuilding with LXI accord pistons and an a18 head to jack the compression way up to allow me to run a healthy cam. So I'd rather use the a20 head.
