Has anyone seen one of these on a car?? I am considering it, the plus is price{990,no core charge}, and ya dont have to change manifolds ,just bolt the beautys on!...........opinions??
I bought one for my 430 Buick as they do not make any cool intakes for the late 60-s GM engines... It looks like it has enough flow area in the adapter to work about right...I have not installed it yet though... I kinda wonder if the added length of the adapter's runner in unison with the intake's runner length will act like a tuned port effect adding any additional tourque? Charlie Price at Vintage Speed- sells em on ebay...
are you happy with the "unit" overall?? looks, quality,ect??did you talk with Charlie before ya bought it?? any reference to how it performs??
I did not buy all of it from V/S....just the adapter... I bought the carbs from a vendor in Texas...Delco rebuilds with two dumpers W blocked idle circuits and a run/cHOKE carb in center...these were 299.00
my thought is, the 327 i have in my 31 coupe runs fine with a 4 barrel{its bone stock} but i want the eye candy so to speak. ease of application is a plus on this unit also. will i get rocks thrown at me cause its not on a 3x2 manifold?? {not that i care mind ya}
i'll be real curious to how these work. in general flow characteristics air doesn't like to bend it may cause to much turbulence but it will look kool how about two of these mounted side ways on a 2x4bll intake seems like the lazy way out a 3x2 intake works decent because of fairly straight air flow path but hey guys let us know john
If so- SCREW EM....that's what I decided as my engine is not trad really either...it is your car your money friend -thats the end of it.
thinking maybe the 3x2 is too much cfm for a bone stock 327 so possibly his 2x2 for a little less money?? decisions ..............
