I was bored and felt like stirring up this pot. Always works when Doug is around. Here's a little carb and intake porn to add to the mix.

On that Shelby 2x4 Boss 302 manifold, the rear overhang appears to be more then on the C60A? My rear carb is pretty close to the firewall.
Does that even fit in a Mustang?

Here's a picture of one in a BOSS 302

If it starts it's streetable.
Overkill is just enough.

The only way I could measure would be if a Cobra oval air cleaner could be made to fit but I see the carbs are in wrong anyway.

You need progressive linkage on the street not parallel and I have found that those metal tube fuel rails create vapor lock.

I went to Delrin so the log stays cool. The fuel literally boils in those metal logs. They get very hot to the touch.

I suppose that's the difference between show and go? Original stupid, and updated smarter?

Good on ya Mobley..... I see you saved some money on the kitchen table and oven set up, to purchase those nice items. I recently upgraded to a coffee pot that has an auto timer to be ready when im ready for breakfast. ;D

I don't have a 2x4 intake table. Can I play too?

Is there anyone here with a SHELBY lettered T/A intake? Nash's are cool too. They're magnesium so they burn.

I'll bet you a Detomaso Pantera Weber intake and raise you Shelby T/A? How about a SHO and a "call'?

'Lu' thought she heard me betting? Wants to know what's going on and if she's in the race?

Only thing left in my reserve. An A331 Ford Motorsport "Torker" for A3 heads.


I made the mistake of putting this in the dishwasher and forgetting about it. Wifey is pissed.

I fix her car for free so she won't throw me out on New Years Day?

The "kitchen table" is in the shop office .  Stove is for when I sleep out there because the wife is mad from me buying too many car parts   8).   You asked about Shelby lettered ta, I have that, the C6OA and the fomoco 2x4 but don't have the C6ZZ intake.  More pics

If you leave the carbs off they make great mouse habitats. When they pop up, the cats play what-a-molie with their heads.

I found all those sunflower seeds inside the plenum from the poised mouse bates.

I love all the old multicarb setups. Wish I could keep all of them but I like finding a home for them.

Great pics from all (even you Doug)
Thanks for sharing, love seeing these.

Here's something that you don't see everyday...or ever?

A 'cammer with 4x2 Holleys.  :o


I think maybe you need a top national security clearance to drive that thing?
