I did a search and didn't find a picture thread so.... Stacks, Scoops, Helmet, lovers, Air cleaners, Finned. show me what you've got.
Here's mine. 50's vintage Fenton intake, 3 vintage 97's, NOS Segal progressive linkage, 3 vintage frog mouths. Got the frog mouths (6 of 'em) from a friend, he's 78, they were on his 32 5 window in the 50's. Ran all six on my old truck.
What kind of fittings are those on your fuel lines? Is that sweated? Its so neat and tidy and I don't think i've seen it before. Usually its some kind of bulky ugly crap shit. Very nice, man!
Not mine but I saw this one on a creamy black with black and red interior 58 Impala in PA last summer.
Thanks For noticing, sometimes you spend lots of time doing stuff like this and no one ever notices. My truck was a late 50's built hot rod so I have tried to make things look as peroid as possible. The fittings I bought from Roy Naciwicz, he makes reproduction ford parts, they are stock type fittings, 1/4" NiCopp line. The "T's" are refridgeration parts so they can handle the pressure. Yes I sweat them together. The jury is still out on wether the 1/4" line will supply enough fuel to the carbs without running dry. The needle and seat restriction is the same no matter what size line you use so I'm going to try it. From my tank all the way to the fuel rail is 3/8" so hopefully that will be enough volume to keep the 3 of them supplied. I hope it does because I like how it turned out.
They are a design that were on the first Corvettes. Boettger. Some companies made their own copies I think? Check the bottom left... Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
