Intake spotted at the swap

I never heard of this brand. Looks like it's a dual Stromerg setup. I didn't take any measurements but I did get the guy's number if anyone is interested. It's used.

Duel duces. Here's a neophite question. With that much carburation, would a hotter cam be a must? Eric

[Normspeed]

I would think a hotter cam, free flowing exhaust, and probably rejetting the carbs to run a bit leaner. I'll stick with my old dual Carter B&Bs.

I used to run dual 97s on an Edmunds manifold with only a 10-1 Edmunds head and split exhaust. It ran quite well but did much better when I put in an Isky 3/4 cam and ported it with custom tube headers.

I had a set of 97's on an Offy manifold we modified. It ran real well at moderate throttle, but I couldn't get it to work at full throttle without getting into detonation. I then switched to an Edmunds manifold with dual Carter-Webers, and that setup works exceptionally well at all throttle positions.

I'm sure that someone more familiar with 97's could make them work as well, but that isn't me! Anyone want to give it a try; I still have the entire 97 setup; manifold, carbs, air cleaners, throttle linkage, even the fuel pump and fuel hard lines.

I might be interested in that setup. Especially if it's not modified to the point where I can't put a couple of 1 brls back on it if I can't get it to work.

I'm also looking for a finned aluminum head and a pair of split exhaust manifolds to put on the 48 Dodge engine going into my 42 coupe.

PM me your price and the other details.

With any improvement in breathing the cam must be profiled to take advantage of this. The cam should be changed to at least a moderate 260 or better...at the same time exhausting what the engine will now take in is a must..dual exhaust would be an advantage. Jetting the carbs for proper fuel ratio is also a must..else you run a bit rich..syncing carbs is paramount and proper tools will be needed.
