The truck I have still has the original flathead straight six. I recently went after an exhaust leak by taking the intake/exhaust manifold off thinking I would replace the gasket and be done with it. After realizing there is no way, with the metal deteriorated on a couple of the ports on the manifold, that this thing is ever going to mate with the block and not leak. I thought it would be cool to put a dual carb set up on. Is there anyone out there who has ever heard of a dual carb set up on an intake/exhaust manifold? I thought even if I can find one with close to the same dimensions I could even custom fit it to the engine being that International is not common or really sought after in the hotrod world. The engine in the truck is a 214c.i.d. straight six flathead green diamond. Thanks for any ideas.
Ellis made a dual single barrel ... Eddie Edmunds might have, but it isn't in a 1951 price sheet if he did.
