Went to the Veterans Car Show in Loma Linda,Ca. today and stopped by the Edelbrock display trailer to rant on no Y-block parts--- there's Vic Jr. behind the display booth and he turns to me and says "not so sir" and proceeded to tell me that they have 2 aluminum manifolds in development at this moment--- a dual plane single 4 barrel and a improved version of their 573 tripower manifold but improvement over HP/TRQ due to newer casting techniques that will be available as a combo with their new Stromberg 97's and a progressive linkage setup! Asked about a new dual quad manifold or a new supercharger setup---his reply was--would be waiting to see if the new manifolds would be financially viable(sales) and consumer response for more new products(i.e. carb/manifold/cam combo--valve covers,etc.) Said he didn't know if they would be ready by SEMA SHOW but should be available by summer 2011 and a article on testing on their dyno mule in a automotive mag! So I'll believe it when I see it or I can sneak across the street to their foundry and get one of the employees to snap a couple of pics for me! Anyways there you go--anybody else have info on this?
