A manifold is pretty simple to build for them has well and numerous people who sell the weber side flanges. In reality Ill have around 500 bucks in them when all is said and done and running

The V8 guys hide everything but the bottle UNDER the intake manifold and plumb the lines thru the heater hoses. You can fit a 10 lb bottle under the dash of a Nova.

Re: Throwback Induction
I tuned an 82mm 11.5 cr LS with Crower 404s this morning. It idled smooth with no lump at 1000 rpms, and felt great WOT - better than most turbo D's in heavy chassis like Del Slo. When it gets dyno'd next month he's spraying a 100 shot on it. Stock sleeve, too.
