In the Vallakra Auto Show in Sweden there were a lot of neat cars.
One of them had a B30 engine with 3 carburetors. A pic of the engine
is at http://www.volvonet.org/tpc/vall/imagepages/125.htm

Questions:
Anybody seen a manifold like this in the US?
Anybody got one to sell?
What exhaust manifold(s) were used with it?

This looks like the same part.

And the triple Stroms.

I believe you're right. I have the one for an AQ170 with the 3
Solex carbs. Slight interference with the front of the FI exhaust
manifold.
They don't show a price for the intake manifold but they do for the
mating exhaust - a whopping $1960!! Only one of my 10 Volvos cost me
more than that!!

Those crazy guys at www.kgtrimning.com have manifolds to fit 3 Weber DCOE carbs onto a B30. And tubular headers to go along with it.
(shudders at thought of the cost)

I'm pretty sure that's a manifold from an AQ165.

As far as I can tell, the AQ165 is the I6 3.0 liter
boat motor, as sold by volvo penta early on in the
lifecycle of that motor. I think when they went to the
triple solex downdraft induction system and called the
motor the AQ170.

I don't know what it is made of, and I don't know
what sort of exhaust manifold it can be used with.

I do know that when I called around to different
boat and boat salvage places, they all said something
similar to "those use to be pretty common, I've worked
on lots of them, and I haven't seen one in years."

If you find 2, keep me in mind for the spare...

See my response to Tim above.

If you happen to find someone who would trade the bare AQ165 manifold
for an AQ170 manifold WITH 3 Solex carbs in (apparently) good shape,
have them e-mail me at gdowns@cableone.net
