That's my car and intake in the pictures, I purchased this intake many years ago from Larry Quinn it was run on his 62 Nostalgia super stock Catalina. I'm building a period correct "Modified Production" 64 Tempest with a Super Duty engine.

Beautiful 64. Can't wait to see it finished!

Ernie Keppler has one of the intakes still. Came on Dave Johnson’s White Warrior 63 Tempest that Ernies been racing he last 10 years or so. He’s running a Gutsram on the motor in it now.

So do you think Mr. Keppler might, loan, rent, or lease it out to make a scan and 3D printed version of it?

The early one on my 421 Lemans came from Dave along with the one I converted and sold to a board member.Tom

I read somewhere that there is a company that can 3D scan an object and from that it can 3D print a mold. I'm not sure where the company is but it might be a viable way to proceed with the project.

These folks may be able to help.

I recently seen an episode of Dave Kindig's "Bitchin Rides" and they used this sand molding service and they were very pleased with the results. They had the molds shipped to them and then had their items aluminum cast locally.

Ernie is a great guy. I’d bet something could be arranged.

Yes, that's the company I was referring to. Finding the molds is no longer needed. Someone can volunteer a good existing manifold already setup for 65 and up heads and have new molds made.
