Oops! I guess I should have checked the Tigers United site and read the
original LAT option brochure...
..." Another interesting sidelight is that the illustration is NOT the
Edelbrock manifold, which has dual slots, not 4 holes. This is probably the
previous "TIGER" lettered artwork, of the Shelby/Benevides design, that has
been "touched up" with the "Edelbrock" signature logo and the "F4B"."
So...they put a 'photoshopped' pic in the brochure...??? lol!!

Steve...
I have a 'plain jane' F4B around here somewhere... and it has 'american'
threads for the sender...and one large plenum hole.
I have 'heard' that the genuine LAT option manifold had 4 holes under the
carb... True...??

Russ,
If you have an F4B that is NOT the one sold as a LAT option, the temp
sender threads a for American senders, and the LAT uses threads to match
the original English sender threads. If you take that manifold to a
machinist, that can also heli-arc weld aluminum, you can get the
original hole filled with aluminum, and new threads to match your
original sender machined in.
