Does anyone make/ have a dual carb intake for a 460 Ford? I haven't had much luck finding one. The owner of the truck we are about to start would like to have one on it.
The only one I know of is Blue Thunder. There may be others, but I haven't heard of any. http://www.bluethunderauto.com/id26.html Don
Yup, Blue Thunder is/was the only one to make a dual quad hi-rise and they can be pricey. Its a nice looking intake too. Holman Moody in NC also use to carry them with their name on them and they were even more pricer...at $200 more when I was looking for one. They told me that Blue Thunder use to make them for H-M. Manufacturer is A.T. Francis. I see DSC Motorsports still offers them for sale at $550, they have a web site but I "hear" that some have had problems with prompt service from this company. They have one on e-bay at the moment (search ford 429 intakes), reserved price is usually quite close to the buy it price, maybe 10 or 20 bucks less. I found mine on e-bay, new in a box, haven't seen any used ones. Wieand offers a dual quad hi-ram tunnel ram. Everybody else only offers single quads. If you do find one, make sure its the non-SCJ/CJ intake as two types were available depending upon the port size. blue thunder dual quad on a 429 (the 460's other sister):
Onebad56, ever had issues with intake gaskets leaking? I've got a 429 SCJ with the tarantula intake and its sprung a leak near the passenger side water line.
Initially, back of the intake by the oil pressure sender and a small leak on the front by the dizzy. Took it all off, put in a new intake gasket and then used a large, thick bead of red silicone make-a-gasket across the front and back, pressed it in place and it sealed.
