    i looooove the pre-war eddie meyer. running heated lines is pretty much unnecessary with our modern fuels. but they look great. we are running one on my boss's flathead and it works like a charm.

    I, As well, am a Why And Believer!

    On the Flip Side, The Thickstun is One Bad Ass Piece! That Edel Slingy is Deadly looking. The Meyer seems to be the Star Of The Show.

    Man I love Flatheads.....

  6. The Weiand. It has a far more organic, natural design that lends itself to the symetrical and simple form of a Flathead.
     
  7. The Eddie Meyer is the one.

    Why?

    The Slignshot is being repro'd, the Weiand is not too difficult to find...the EM, much less common.

    Having said that, I have heard that the EM have fuel distribution issues.

    I would have to go for the Weiand, only because the Eddie Meyer appears to have been broken and welded. Get a matching set of FR (For Racing) Weiand heads with a logo generator offset, or set of Weiand cheater heads. Find yourself an early Weiand decal for the firewall. That would be my plan.

    Good luck.

    I'm a Weiand man myself, but the Eddie Meyer is a slick lookin setup with the cooling fins for a denser charge. All together theres noth'in like a highrise manifold!
