That looks like a good set up. Looks like you would need something a tad bigger than a 350 holley for that manifold though. Looks similar to a thermoquad set up

Yeah, I'd have to adapt a 500 Edelbrock/AFB or a 500 2bbl Holley, even a 650 spread-bore. Aluminum welds nice:) I have some 450 s-b's but don't know if I can jet them rich enough for a draw-thru.
 
The Thermoquads we get here are a 750 im pretty sure. But doubt they would be any good on a turbo set up because they have a plastic body.
They work great on a 6 cylinder hemi because of the small primaries let you cruise around at low rpm without fouling up but when the secondaries open up they give it a gut full of fuel and really get them going.

you should be able to get a spreadbore to 2 barrel adapter pretty easy.

jetting the carb shouldnt be to hard, iv done a few draw through setups using SU's with no lean spots on the dyno
2 inch jaguar SU's are a magic carb and easily tuned.. dont be mislead by their size..

one of my local carb guys races rally cars and back in the day he built a 2.1ltr nissan bluebird with a draw thru T04 and 1 3/4 SU, crap loads of boost (like 30psi) and water injection.. made 250+hp easy...
 
Sweet idea, Sean.

Darn shame only the tilted Mopar guys get these:

So, FPM now owns a 1982 Aluma-Lite RV with a 300" Ford Six inline. While it gets around jut fine, I AM The GDFP;) I know AU got a bunch of them. Any one seen/have any cool intake or exhausts for one? Edelbrock made an S.P.2-P intake with long runners, but they're rare as pimple-less 14 year-olds.
Pics would be great.

im turning 14 tomorrow so in one day i'll be a pimple-less 14 year old!
is that bad :hmmm::confused-smiley-013
 
Haven't got an old SP2P hanging on the wall by your skateboard, have ya?

Happy Birthday;)
 
I have had a few over the years. Might be able to get access to one. What you need?

The longest runner intake manifold I can source. Aluminum, preferred. Or even the port spacing so I can call off or intensify the search.
Some thing like the Hurricane a few posts back.
