    Im starting to gather parts to ***emble a freshly rebuilt and slightly hopped up 8BA. I have access to several different carb combinations, 94's Holley Gl*** Bowls, Stromberg WW's etc...
    I was thinking that 2 of the Stromberg WW'swould look good on a side by side Slingshot:

    Or Choice B:
    How about 2 of the Gl*** Bowls on a dual intake?

    Choice C: 2 94's on a dual intake?

    I like 94's alot but somethign different is always good!

    How "traditional" or period correct would that be in a Model A Sedan? The rest of the car will be fairly period correct.
    Thanks for the info!

    I think that 2 Stromberg WWs will be way too much carburetor for your Flattie. Also, the WWs are 4 bolt carbs so you'd have to adapt that 3 bolt slingshot.

    I can't see those side by side Stromberg jobbies bieng very efficient.
    The outlet hole at the bottom is only the same size as a single Stromberg.

    There is probably a good reason why no one uses them much.
