View Full Version : new intake
Here's a couple of pics of my new intake for the dodge. It was an anniversary gift from Bugman... couldn't have been a cooler gift!
It started out as a dual 4bbl intake for a 318. Bugman made an adaptor for it so I could run 3 2bbl holly 94's on it for the time being. I have another idea for it with some carters for later... just gotta find a good matching set. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Nice! I don't know how he did that, but that could be one of the best uses of billet, ever!

Good thinkin' on the adapter. Does the center carb work?

The center carb should work fine in theory, but I guess we'll really find out when I slap her on the car.

Nice. Do you have a photo of the adapter without the carbs on it? I'm curious what the fuel path for the middle carb looks like...

You are my dream gal, Mel. Too young, but my dream gal none the less.
I used some Seals All on my radiator... lo and behold she quit leaking. I still have it in the back of my head that I need to either recore it or replace it though... it's only a patch, I know.
I would take the adaptor off, but the paint is still a bit soft, so I hope these pics make sense.
The adaptor is actually hollow, so the center carb may or may not work real well.
This is by no means the last adaptor that will be on this intake. You'll see what I mean when I find enough carters http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

It looks like the air/fuel from the center carb will have to do a bit of a "Z" to get into the intake proper. It'll be interesting to hear how it runs...

I was concerned with flow from the center carb. I formed some sheetmetal into an upside down V and welded it in to help with airflow. The center carb won't do much past off idle, it's only there for idle anyway. I'm making a progressive linkage, and the outer carbs have a straight shot down into the outer holes on the intake.

P.S. Know what I got Mel for her birthday? Shop manuals http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
