What new intake choices are there available these days?

There's the Offenhauser 4bbl intake, the Clifford 4bbl intake, the Clifford water heated 4bbl intake.
There is an Offenhauser dual carb intake, for two ibbl carbs. This intake has been modified by some to mount two 2bbl intakes.
There is also a reproduction "Hyper-pack" 4bbl intake, this one would be for a car that was primarily used for racing, from what I understand.
There may be other intakes out there, but those are the ones that come to mind immediately.
I hope this helps ya.

Thanks for that.
I understand the comment on the Hyper-pak, but what about the others?
Does anybody have a preference or ideas on what works best?

I've heard the Offy is good for street: Clifford for racing. The "dual" is nice for a stock set up. Of course there also is the Super six (factory 2bbl).
One thing to consider, especially if you are in a cold climate, you probably want to get some heat to the intake. This can be done a few ways.
All of the manifolds will hook up to an original exhaust manifold heat riser. If you are going with headers, then the water jackets are needed. Oddly enough though, I think there is a problem with Clifford intake and headers, even though Clifford sells headers. I think it depends on what car you have.
Someone (Frank Riso?) has made their own "heat plate".

I recall a australian company called lynx that makes a manifold also.

There is one more unlikely one off manifold that has been used. It was probably home made from a dual carb intake manifold. I can't vouch for the quarter mile times or its streetability because not much seems to be known about this setup. It would be interesting to know what this motor has inside. Click the link.

I think that looks like the offy 2x1???

That intake looks sweet whatever it is!
I've seen intakes on Ebay made by "lynx", and also by "Cain".

The Lynx and Cain are not available new, s/h only.

Those don't look like quads, they look like Holley 1920s on the Offy 2x1 intake!
