Can you buy just the carb or is it only a carb intake combo. If you can buy just the carb then get one and fab up an intake. The carb doesn't care what kind of engine is under it.
My opinion..but i dont think this is the 'right" crowd for this..or at least being able to sell them at that price, and the stagnation of this thread seems to back that up and it looks like a serious PITA to use besides nothing looks cooler than a shit load of 97's. or 94's..or even 2G's it looks different..but thats about all i can say about it..kinda ugly too too sterile
seems like these would look right at home on a 100k shop built street rod. i would think that you could get around the fuel / air distribution issues a lot cheaper then 2k
I meant to post it over here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=159245 more about Ford and less about that Grant guy ... so solly, I will erase it and put it in the other thread, hope all it will make everything ok with the world again ...
I would have to think most of the threads from 2007 are old and stagnant but then again that is only my "opinion" .
true..but it didnt even seem to go very far even than..or were you missing that point? hey im not looking to get anyones panties in a bunch..it just doesnt seem like the type of carb you would see much of on this forum..let alone the price is more than some guys have in their entire build..or engine for that matter.. maybe the old original type..seems to possibly fit a certain build..but that new one looks a bit too street roddy or sterile as i said before.. whatever..3,000 views and less than 40 comments..speaks for its self when talking to me
No problem as we were not the thread starter but one of our/your fellow hot rodders saw it and thought it was interesting and wanted to pass it along. Agreed it is not something that would be found on a "traditional" rod but then again it was never intended to , hence the lack of initial interest on this board. Along the same lines quite a few on this board have embraced our Demon 98's while others have scoffed at them but so be it, not all of us have to conform to anothers opinion.
yep..not pushing for anyone to agree with me..JMO.. on a different note..im glad there are companies like yours out there working on things like this, carbs are not something widely used or MFG'ed these days
Agreed as many have gone the way of fuel injection but I still talk to many of all ages who would rather stay with carburetion . We will continue to bring new products to market both in carburetor and support systems. Just last month we released our new D-FLow carburetor which uses D shaped butterflies instead of round ones. Lots of benefit in doing that but there again not a typical product for a traditional rod either. There are other projects in the works as well but the "traditional rod" market is one that is real hard to manufacture parts for and make everyone happy unless you want to duplicate the appearence of any given item. Our products will continue to have their own style and looks but some of the guys will end up using them in the name of both reliability and safety over some of the original components.
