[Fot] Manifold needed

[davehogye]

Hello Friends, 
This low port manifold inquiry has me thinking that I need to take a good look at my TR stock pile. I joke about it by saying that I'm going to build a retaining wall with the blocks I have lying around, and to think it has only taken me 5 years to collect this amount of Triumph poundage. I can't recall the engine number, but I acquired a TR2 engine a while back and I think the engine # is 1400 something. With it I got a low port manifold with the H6 mounts and hadn't thought about it much until this current FoT topic. I'll have to go refresh my memory and log the numbers. My next Triumph acquisition just might be TS2172L TR2 long door. I didn't think long doors went much beyond 1500. 2172 needs a total redux, but everything is there, numbers matching. I feel another race car build coming on.

The intake manifold listed for 9350E through 13051E also fits the low port head and takes H6 carbs. The change at 9350E was to the "Le Mans" head, but it shared port locations (and gasket) with the earlier heads. The high port heads started at 13052E.
