Where are those factory twin carb setups from?

Don’t think they were really available on 23” motors unless marine applications. They were available in the early 50’s for the 25”,265 dodge 2 1/2 ton trucks and dealer aftermarket. They do not interchange.

Awesome; looks cool as the other side of the pillow. Disappointed that it's not a 216 applicable item, but there are plenty (relatively) of aftermarket kits.

I have a 23” 230 with a stock manifold modified by George Asche to  mount dual Carter B&Bs.

How do you like it?  Do you notice a performance improvement?

I had pulled the original 218 from my truck and rebuilt a 230 for it, had George Asche split the exhaust manifold and modify the stock intake manifold for dual carbs, I also followed John-T-53s 

T5 project and installed a T5 behind the flathead 6 with a Jeep Cherokee 3.55 rear, so to answer your question the motor is really peppy now and the trans makes a huge difference in city traffic and on the freeway!
