I was so happy when the big brown truck pulled up All my Weiand stuff I will never sell it's just to hard to find
Cool, glad to see you finally found one Tom! Now if anyone runs across anymore weiand intakes or especially weiand finned valve covers, LET ME KNOW!!! Ill try to get a pic of the few nailhead peices that i have in a couple dayys
This thread is Serious NAILHEAD PORN!!!! I have a factory 2-four intake for sale. If anyone is interested, pm me.
I hate you all, I have my 401 back but all the good parts got sold off on me. Anyone want to sell me a Hilborn injection set up, finned timing chain cover (Preferably with engine mounts on it) and a set of good heads?? PLEASE!! Doc.
Old Wolf... any idea how that thing ran? do the rochester's have any part numbers on? Just wondering if a set of stock rochester 4G's would work.... O Yah, if you don't need them crusty red valve covers, send them this way....haha Just picked up a weiand intake and never thought about using the stock carbs... Anyone know about using a set of 4G's vs. AFB's?
I havent heard this run yet. A dumb ass took it out so he could replace it with a 350 chev and a sissy auto trans. i have the bell and two cad lasale 3speed trans. I have ran two stock rochester 4GC carbs before. I adjust so it will idle on both carbs and both open at the same time. The 401 was sitting and mud daubers got inside. I pulled the pan and intake and valley covers to clean them out. I also have a 56 322 and a offy trans adapter to attach a early ford trans or mini bell. i plan on installing the 401 in a 50 chev sedan delivery . Thinking of using a econoline van straight axle front and a 8 lug chev rear with a no spin center. OldWolf
Hey old wolf can you post a better pix of them headers If you want to sell them valve covers let me know Tom
Those are TRI Y headers. Will post better pictures later. I seen a pair of those wieand valve covers sell for over $700.oo on ebay a few months ago. However with any auction you cant be shure if everything is on the up and up. I got the engine cheap enough that i can afford to keep it .Its not for sale at this time. If i do ever decide to sell it would have to be a package deal. Lots of neat goodies on this thread. OldWolf
Here is what I have picked up for my 401. Valve covers and valley cover is Moon's. Intake is a 66 GS Q-Jet and distributor is Dual Coil with Mallory coils. Damn this stuff is expensive but I still need to spring for a trany adapter for a 700r4. Oh! the shopping cart was stolen but I know nothing about that!
I've got an EELCO aluminum finned valley cover and a stock intake. Did you mean the dual quad intake? Mine's the stock single quad. It works fine.
I have the dual quad factory intake. I assumed that the single quad would have the same problem. That's what I get for Assuming. Anyway I bought one at the Decatur swap meet that I cant use with my 2-4's. Giess it will go on the wall for a while.
The heat riser is what hits the pan all you have to do is grind some of the fins not a big deal. Intake spacers have shown to loss power on the dyno
I did and happy with what I paid and received. I did know that the q-jet intake takes a special valley pan but plan on running risers.
I milled a little off the center fins and it fits just fine with the stock cast iron dual quads. Hyfire
