I've never seen another one like it. Seen several offy manifolds, but never one by Fenton. Is this thing really valuable or rare? Thanks for any comments. BTW: it lines up real nice with those Fenton exhaust manifolds. No grinding needed.  Fenton intake manifold | | |

They are definitely more rare than Offenhauser because they are not made anymore and Offenhausers still are. More desirable than an Offy (?) - I don't know. They both work the same - more desirable just because of the fact that they aren't made anymore and because they say "Fenton" on them. They do look real nice with a set of Fenton headers and, you said it, they do line up nice with the Fenton headers. That's a nice looking set up!

There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

That gaping hole in the transfer case is what happens when loose ball bearings get wedged between the gears and the side of the case. Gears loose teeth, cast-iron case explodes, makes lots of noise, and throws gear oil everywhere. That happened on the way out of the driveway on its maden voyage after a 4-year tear down. Disappointing to say the least. | | |
