Scott,

Guess the first questions are stock motors and fuel preference [gas or alky]

Stock 92 series intakes work pretty good once converted to accept a Tilloston for a 91,92,93 series engine.
Most all after market hot rod manifold will work well also.

On a 49er would probably look for a manifold that takes a West Bend V-reed cage. No expert on 49's so maybe a 49 guy could chime in.

Check this stuff out also...http://californiavintagekarters.com/intake.html

Scott,

Rob sent you the site for the correct manifold. I've used them for many years with the West Bend four pedal reed. Vince also has reeds for sale. There are other options but this the one I like.
