Real nice Todd.  Patience is a virtue.

I had wondered about a multi carb setup using the Stromburg look alike EFI carbs. I'm not much on EFI but it seems that the electronics would balance out the carbs and make the setup a lot easier. Of course they are expensive. Maybe just the center pair with the other 4 blocked off. Chuck

Good going Todd! That thing will look cool, just glad that I ain't got to tune it.

6 or more intake holes!

I found one!

I was one of the crazies that bid the last ebay Drag Star up to an unreasonable price, and then one dropped in my lap...nice Y-Block Drag Star with a motley crew of carbs...I'm a happy camper.

On a side note, this came up a week after I wound up with a complete 6x2 for an early hemi (below)...I traded this to a fellow who really wanted a r/b MEL that I had. This takes up a lot less space

Same reason so many guys run the 3 x 2 setup. A lot more look than power. I had a 6 duece setup on a 69 Firebird in Hawaii. It ran ok, took a lot of tinkering (constantly). No way would they perform anywhere near my 750 Holley. BUT when I raised the hood at the cruise nites I always could expect a crowd! Neat to be neat for a change. Chuck

To all the nay-sayers, I'm sorry that you don't understand why I want a 6x2. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine

To those who do get me, many thanks! The dyno reports that I use are the relative speed with which the neighborhood children run for their mommies when they here my cars rumble. I love that this set-up has created such a controversy. Short of a blower, nothing looks more awesome than 6x2's on an engine, unless there's room for 8x2's as in the case of MEL's and HEMI's.

On the HAMB, my signature states:

Enough said?

Charlie, I suspect most of them do not understand Big Red. I'll bet he'll drive it to work when he feels like it and go right past the local cop on the way!

When I was living in Hawaii we took a bunch of rods and drag cars on a couple of barges over to the Big Island from Oahu. One of the cars was a model T Touring with a well built engine and Magneto. It was on the first barge so the T was used to pick up the guys at the airport. Small airport I might ad. After several trips back and forth a airport worker was waiting for us at the curb. He asked "have you been making a lot of trips here today?" Skippy said yes, why? The guy explained that every time the T came into the pickup area their radar went goofy! I didn't know they could do that. But the guy swore to it and asked if we could use another car to pick up folks. Wild times. Chuck
