Original F20 manifold

I'm looking for an original manifold for an F20. Anyone have one to sell or know where I can find one? I'm a CASE guy, but I picked up this F20 to restore this winter

Real close to fifty years ago Sid on the next farm had me take our F-20 over to tow their hard starting F-20. At first they tryed the little Ford but it would not tow the larger tractor! After towing a while with our 20 and no results i offered to belt them up! Worked good as you could pull the choke,fiddle with the mag and think it helped! Tryed priming it with the cups and it would hit a little. Gas would run out of the carb when you pulled the choke but no suction was found on the air inlet?? Got to feeling arround and found a pice of the intake manifold had rusted out on the back side!!!! Good luck on finding a org Hot manifold!! Bud.

Thanks guys, I found a new reproduction manifold at the Fordson house in Escanaba, mi. that's close to where I live. I'm new to these IH's. You guys are very helpful, just like the guys on the CASE forum. Thanks again!!

Just so you know.... the reproductions available (i have several, a couple from Fordsonhouse) are reproductions of the aftermarket gasoline manifolds made by Heisler. An original manifold is a big boxy thing with a heat deflector valve that preheats the intake for burning kerosene. Most of them are rotted beyond repair. The run on gas better with the cold manifold anyway.
