Are you talking about LPG for triple side draft carbies?

Is this what your after?

No, more specificaly to do with a gas manifold

I didn't know there was a difference when it came to manifolds. I have never heard of an LPG dedicated triple carb maifold.

Do you have triple SU/Stromberg or Weber/Delorto set up?

I thought you only needed LPG carbs for the gas conversion.

Yes, this is true. Only on 'V' engines do you really have a need to choose single or dual plane.

Triple carb manifolds for the hemi six (I think) are all individual runner type so a plenum setup between two runners with a flange suitable for the gas carb would be required. While you at it you could calculate the lengths of runners for the inlet manifold although it wouldn't have as a dramatic effect as a petrol system would.
