I've got a good idea for my 3rd DIY kit using these and still retaining my a/c but with stock fans.

PSJ, I will try to send you some screen dumps so you can post up some pics for reference.

you can't use them both from the GP because the rear one dumps in the center, and has an additonal pipe for joing the crossover pipe on. I can't see that working very well...

Bigred is probably right, the nova guy mentions that the other manifold is unuseable because it has two outlets or something like that.
Smokin, i'm not really talkin about myself and a/c, but for those who want to keep a/c and go with GM manifolds, this might be the hot ticket.
And if it does work with the a/c compressor...and I was to rerun my a/c I'd just keep the DP under the k member as it sits now....

I think I'll give it a shot. I work for an automotive shop, and just called the local GM house we order parts through. They said they could get one for me, and if it wasn't going to work, I could just send it back (provided it hasn't been bolted up, of course...

But, they might work for my '69 Camaro project

Exactly Don, Don't need to use both. The truck mani on the driver side and the GP mani on the pass side.
Even if it doesn't allow A/C usage it still outlets better on the passenger side for those with stock K members. Those with stock k members using both truck manifolds have to notch the K member on the passenger side for the manifold to clear it.
