i was wonderring if anyone makes ither a 4x2 or 6x2 intake for a big block chevy? i seem to remember seeing one, a 4x2 i believe, on a big block in an A roadster but cant find a pic of the car. any info or leeds would be greatly appreciated. thanks-Brian
man a fre makes a 4x2 intake. i seen one at a swap meet years ago. havent seen one since there pretty rare
Don't forget about the factory 3X2 (Holley) setups. They can be really neat with the right aircleaners. Problem is they command a premium price as the Corvette restorers gobble 'em up to built ("correct") tri-power restorations. A few years ago there was an ebay feeding frenzy but that has subsided somewhat as there wasn't an unlimited supply. I've managed to corral 3 of the setups and one is going on my 435hp 427 that will find it's way into my '32 5w. Frank
--------------------------------- Yeah those Corvette big block Tri-power sets look really nice on a rod. They came in two flavoyrs too....an oval port 427-400hp set-up and a rectangular port 427-435hp As stated, the price on corect original Corvette tri-power set-ups has gone to the moon and beyond, but if your using it for a rod and don't have to have correct number and date code matched carbs and all the original fuel fittings, linkage and such, starting with bare intake manifold, you could probably put together a good working and great looking set-up for not a lot more than some aftermaket multiple-carb set-ups.

ran a few different manifolds on my last car experimented with dual quad medium rise, dual quad tunnel ram, dual quad cross ram, an early Edelbrock tunnel with the HUGE plenum and this Man-A-Fre sold the car before trying this run of the mill 3x2
paul - how did you like the man-a-fre...ran good? also, i have rectangle port version, did they come with oval ports as well?
it ran the hardest of all the manifolds I played with, very strong and very responsive as far as I know they only came in rectangle port form here's an ancient clip of it
