what about the finned valley covers for these motors, they seem pretty hard to find???
i cant find one anyway!!

 

Here are a few that I have.
Horne 4-2bbl
NOS Cragar 4-71
Weiand 2-4bbl
Detroit Racing 2-2bbl

 

Try O'Brien's Truckers....Dennis makes them. I have one from him, via the now defunct Vintage Parts. Around US$80 I think.

 

If anyones interested in Buying a 2 x 4 detroit racing manifold, e-mail me. A member laid a deposit but didn't come through, so it's now back up for sale. Pls see for sale section.

 

4X2 Edelbrock

rare cause it dose not have the center port / Heat Riser ..I think it might be a race version.

I have not seen another,,

 

in my mind..i just gave all those intakes a hug.

 

I would like to give you a big hug.

Thats awesome.

Hey skratch. Post a pig picture of all your sweet chrome cadillac ****o.

 

What Does Something Like That Run You.

 

Burrell designed those flatty intakes for tanks in world war II, the tank ones were cast iron from what I understand, Not sure if they ever got used on tanks or not. His son makes one every now and then out of aluminium. After WWII he went on to design manifolds for Detroit Racing Equipment a**** other things., he also sold filled and milled heads for Flatty Caddy's too.

 

burrels son barry did a round of 12 cadflat intakes in the early 90's. . and when i talked to him almost 3 years ago, he made 3. and he's working on another round again. pm me if you interested, i have his email adress.
sorry to high jack this thread, with all this talking about that old **** lol!

No stock valve covers are definitely cool looking, but some hopped-up engines need more clearance than stockers provide!

 

here-s an Edelbrock 3-2 manifold on the 53 Cad 331 motor in my 33 coupe.

 

looking for a Hildebrandt valley cover... anyone? Got the valve covers. And a Moon valley cover to trade.
