    Bought this intake and carb today. I know it’s a Rochester 4 jet but the homemade intake has me stumped. Looks to be off a 4 cylinder but seems to be missing some bolt holes. Just wanting to see if this intake/exhaust setup looks familiar to anyone. IMG_1093.JPG IMG_1092.JPG

    Same port layout as Model A, the 2 studs are on 6-1/2" centers. IMG_3020.JPG

    Don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I guess I was thinking a gm product because of the Rochester 4 jet. I sure would’ve loved to here it run on a model a 4 banger with those short pipes. Thanks for the info

    I would measure the centers of middle holes on your setup, just to confirm it fits Model A, and possibly B.

    I measured the centers a few minutes ago. It’s 6 1/2” on center. I guess I’ll have to build my A motor so I can use it. Thanks for the help
