Stu,

I have a F4B manifold and I was told by the mechanics that this manifold
was cast iron and obviously not a F4B. I'm not sure what to make of it.

Question #2: My F4B seems to be a high rise manifold. Does anyone know
if there were different versions of the F4B?

Thanks,
Malcolm

Back at Suni 2, Tom Patton was giving us a tour of his 
race car.  I remember him telling us that the "F4B" was 
the original manifold that the SCCA would let him use.  
Is this what the guy had?
