    There repopping them but they take Autolite or Holley two barrels. I've never seen one that was setup for Stromberg 97's or Holley 94's.

    Here's a post from the last time it came up: Tri Carbs for a Smallblock Ford

    Intakes are around $400 and available from Perogie and Ford-y-block.com I think there all made by Blue Thunder

  4. Weber carbs are the best set-up for a 289/302 for performance and looks in my opinion. Downside is they are a bit expensive. Might not be what you are looking for but just a thought.

    The October 2006 issue of Rod & Custom has an artical on the new Barry Grant Tri-power set up for Fords. Not really traditional looking, but they claim it runs great and makes good power.

    There are also a couple tri-powers, holman-moody, but get ready to pay out your ass for either.

    Thanks Guys, Like Everybody Im On A Budget, But When Wanting To Run Multiple Carbs That Cant Really Be An Option Ive Realized. I Surpose Ill Look Into The Blue Thunders. Thanks, Brandon
     
  9. although the Barry Grant setups make great power, they're damned expensive.
    I agree about the Webers.
    If your motor can handle it (& you can afford the gas) dual quad intakes are easy to come by.
