    Hi, I'm new to this site and all this high tech messaging stuff, but here goes. I'm a retired drafting&designer/teacher and old school hot-rodder, a****st other things, who is trying to finish a fairly long term project rod, a 1932 Ford 5-window hiboy coupe with a 341 Desoto and 4-spd. mopar trans. I have collected any aftermarket intakes I found over the last many years and have a Weiand 4-2, Weiand 6-2, Weiand blower intake, factory 2-4 cast iron and an Edmunds 2-2. Iwould really like to use a 3-2 but have never seen one. What is the status on the Eelco??. In the meantime, I will use the Edmunds 2-2 with ROCHESTER 2GC'S. This is a low deck intake, so I designed and had cnc machined aluminum spacers to compensate for the width difference. I have them bolted to a dummy engine and the setup looks good and should work excellently. If anyone could use a pair of these spacers to adapt a low deck intake to a tall deck engine, let me know as I had a couple extra pair machined. Am interested in any info on a 3-2 intake for either low or tall deck engines, and in talking to other Desoto engine guys. Thanks, Don Harrington

    Welcome from another Ontario guy.:)

    BTW, you should keep the intro separate from from car questions, best to start a separate thread for those;)
     
  3. Welcome from Arkansas. smiffy6four is correct, this is the intro board. Post your questions on the main board, only after doing a search first! Many times a question or subject has already been covered. Search first then post and you'll get along fine....

    Don, I've been a member since 2008 I guess but I'm only now just starting to post. Like you I have a 341 but mine's going in a Model A coupe!
