    Those little ports are vacuum line ports, and the machined channel is so it won't pull vacuum from only one port at a time. I've got an old Weiand with the same thing. Plus, if the intake was for a half and half compressor, why would it have ports from the carb all the way down into all eight cylinders?

    Is there an eBay item # to those compressor intakes?

    Just to clarify, I did NOT buy this manifold off E-pay...the pics I posted DO show up there as the owner had it listed in several places. I paid less than half of the E-pay price and believe that the vacuum ports were meant to run vacuum operated wipers. This is most definitely NOT an intake for any type of air compressor conversion.
