Are they currently avaliable and who has them? Tried to google it and couldn't come up with anything definate. Price? From a recent post here I understand that Mummert has no intakes available at this time.

Blue thunder seem to come up on eBay for a couple months at a time. I guess a run is made, they're sold and then they're gone for a while. I've seen them for $500-$550 there. You can contact Blue Thunder to see if they will sell you one or can refer you to a vendor who has one.

Here’s the BT site, it a bit funky on my iPad. Does have a contact number. If I have mine off again, I’ll have the slot welded up and finished as was discussed here. https://bluethunderauto.com/

Ted Eaton has access to them if they are available. I just bought one from Ted to dyno test for our EMC engine this year. The cost is about $550.00 with tax or shipping. Joe-JDC

I have a new Blue Thunder manifold that I bought from John Mummert years ago that I would sell. The manifold was never installed and has been in a box all these years. John was helping to develop the manifold for BT before he started making his own. I will sell it for $400.00 plus shipping from bay area, California.

I run my stock ‘55 manifold with the truck gasket. I wonder if Mummert’s manifold (which I recall delivers better torque) with no crossover carb heat, would suffice for norther climate/winter use? It’s non-stock appearance would be harder to take if I also end up with a carb icing issue.

I forgot to ask, are there any hood clerance issues with the Blue Thunder on the T Birds? I know Mummert makes a lower manifold for the T Bird.

My Blue Thunder clears the bird with either an Edelbrock or a Holley. No spacer, but I might have been able to get a short one in. Stock air cleaner, modified to fit the carb. (Teapot oilbath repop.)

The Blue Thunder has a Ford part number on it, and the newest casting has the firing order on it like a stock ECZ-B intake. It has the solid divider and comes with hold down clamps, bolts, etc. It is almost identical to the iron intake in looks and fitment, but flows an average of 278-279 cfm. Joe-JDC
