I have a 66 GMC truck with a straight six. Looking for 3, 4 or 5 single barrel carb intake such as Offenhauser. Any recommendations on vendors.

Which 6? Best bet may be Offenhauser for a tripower

IN THE OLD DAYS WE MADE OUR OWN,   You have to heat the original up until it is a dull red and a magnet won't stick to it... then you can arc weld on the adaptor flanges, then slowly let it cool down, a charcoal fire wooks good.  I did a 4 carb  by using a head machine and cutting in stepped holes and using a 4 bolt flange  on a home made adaptor I used epoxy, sealer and 2 bolts into holes i drilled and tapped into the manifold and 2 holes for the carb.
