not vintage but a set of nascar pontiac small block chevy heads, outlawed by nascar due to extreme valve angle that year. a friend used these heads on a 434 small block and made 850 hp on the engine. my set flows better than his. and I just happen to have a clearanced, machined block, stroker crank, and set of pistons for this engine, just need to find the right rods.

My Pontiac 'bathtub' tunnel ram intake.

When was the last time you saw a factory tunnel ram intake? Plenty of factory cross-rams were made, but this is the only tunnel ram that I know of.

This is a repro of the factory intakes that were used on the '63 421 Super Duty drag race engines back during the factory stocker wars. There probably isn't a better factory designed and produced performance intake than this one.

There's room for a 2-barrel idling carb with a 3-bolt base in between the two 750 Carter AFBs, this feature was eliminated on later factory versions of this intake.

Mechanical tach drive.
On one of these years ago, I drove the dry sump scavenger
pump there.

Ive got an Edmunds 4x2 for my 322 Buick Nailhead that will go in the next project (A front engined rail, or a Anglia gasser maybe) I see someone else on here has one...maybe we have the only 2!!! never seen another, also lots of different engine adapters, several NOS ansen and JC Witney parts. A 39 Toploader with Linc Zeph gears (not re-pop). All pretty rare....especially here over the "pond"! Oh and I just sold my Dago axle and 46 Banjo (For 3k USD :-)... )
So time to start collecting some parts.

Have a "thing" for rare and obscure things I find

Those crazy pre-war Art Deco Thickstun 216 Chevy six dual manifolds are very desireable. We sold one at the Decatur TX swap meet a few years ago for $350. Still had its original red paint like all Thickstun goodies, of course it was partially covered with a copper color, and a white, and a yellow, and a blue too.

For years I was a hoarder, had lots of rare parts that I would never use. When I retired 6 years ago I decided to get rid of things I did not need and finish putting my 39 Ford back together. I have sold most of the "things" including several cars and 2 houses, and am down to the wire on the car. I have made lots of guys very happy by being fair with them. The rariest " part "I have is my 39 Ford that I have kept thru lots of twists and turns in my life for 41 years now.
It makes sense to sell your stashes and enjoy the cash yourself rather than having it thrown away after your death.
Learn from me do not be a slave to your parts.

Grabbed a Holley 94 and did a little measuring. It will fit with a slim throttle arm on one side only.

The flatty in my '46 Plymouth has a dual carb Edmunds manifold, but the really cool piece is the Sharp aluminum head.
