239 flat head six

I'm searching for a triple carb set up for my 239 straight six. I know Offenhauser makes a kit for the chevy flatty but i can't find anything for the pontiac. And unfortunatly this engine was only used in pontiacs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am also trying to find an overdrive for her but I don't know what tranny is in it other than a 3 speed on the column.

 

I recomend learning to weld. It will be faster, cheaper and more instructive.

 

Im confused, welding isnt a problem my wife is a welder... but what are you talking about welding? a new intake manifold?

 

no such thing as a Chevy flathead...

 

I haven't had much luck finding speed parts for my 239 - it seems until you have one, no one knows they even exist. If you find stuff, let me know.

As for the overdrive, I did the swap to T5 tranny, open drive and Blazer rear axle swap - works great - tons of info here on the HAMB.

Good luck !!!

 

??? what year and aplication is this motor? any pictures.

 

1951 Pontiac Chieftain. Got pics but gotta figure out how to post them on here. Im worse on a computer than i am under the hood.

 

I've seen 2 carb intakes come up every now and than, never a 3 carb intake. Your better off as mentioned building your own. If you get the trans adapter from Bentsens that will give you alot more options on trans choices.

 

Yes. I think it is the logical answer.
