Supercharger manifold for small block

I have a small block supercharger manifold plus the thermostat housing and air cleaner for sale. This is the first one I had that was on the engine for 1 1/2 years, sprung a water leak, got it sealed and decided to have another made with the exhaust crossovers welded up, trued up intake surfaces and the supercharger mounting surface. Switched them recently and had those things taken care of on the original one. Then I decided to make a new thermostat housing, which is needed with this manifold for low clearance, so made an extra one to sell with the original manifold. Will also include the Edelbrock modified air cleaner I used initially. Now I have $750 in purchase,machining,welding and remachining for truing. The thermostat housing and air cleaner, I'm throwing in. Buyer will need to get the Weiand 142 SC kit for a small block Chevy, this gets the belt and proper crank pulley......that will need to be converted to 4 hole pattern form 3 hole(I did this myself with my basic drill press) I can give more info to the purchaser later, then I needed to have .200 taken off the aft end of the pulley for a perfect belt fit. A little long but this is information I think is needed. $500 plus the ride. Last pic is my attempt at cold air intake, works great. Reduced the price

That looks awesome. To bad I don't have a small block.
Good luck with the sale on it.

I bet it does. Great work. Unfortunately, there's no way my stock 72 motor would hold up, so this plus the cost of a rebuild puts we way over an LS swap. :/

Yes, cost was certainly a factor, I was lucky enough to score a Weiand 142 on ebay for $1600 and it came with a new Edelbrock 750, so I was in the $2400ish range, but my engine was already built to about 8.5:1, and everything is bolt-on which I like. I run max 5 psi, still holding up so far. If you're running too much psi, put a bigger pulley on the SC.
If it didn't fit under the hood, I was going to go with a big block. My mechanic friend was standing there for quite a while with his sawzall in his hand to cut my nice hood, but I was determined to make it fit if physically possible. Fun project.
