Speedway lists a couple of three carb offy manifolds, but they're not cheap...235 Chevy Triple Carb Intake - Speedway Motors, America's Oldest Speed ShopRoger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I realize that you may not want to mess with it, or you would like the flash of a cast aluminum setup, but if you have moderate fabricating skills, they are not hard to make. Three flanges made to fit the intake/exhaust layout, turned up stubs, and a balance tube welded between them, or a log or rectangular shaped plenum on top with the carb flanges , and a block off plate for the heat riser on the stock exhaust, or a set of headers without the riser. I've seen a few, and helped a guy in high school make one for Jimmy "back in the day".Rrumbler, Aka: Hey you, "Old School", Hairy, and other unsavory monickers.

Should have posted sooner, but went with a 4 barrel carb(390CFM Holley). Worked out great. Thanks BartKeep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
