I’m in the process of gathering up carbs and intakes for an upcoming Ford Y-Block dual quad intake test.  The dual quad intakes on hand thus far for testing are the Edelbrock 255 and 257, 1956 Ford, 1957 Ford, Edmunds, and Fenton.  It would be a plus to see the Weiand and Offenhauser dual quad intakes also represented during this test.  Plans are to test some of the intakes with a variety of carbs including the new Demon Street Fighter carbs so there should be lots of information available once the test is concluded.

 

If anyone has a dual quad intake they would like to see tested during this dyno session, just get back with me and we can determine if this is something different or simply a duplicate of one that’s already on hand.  I could also use another 1956 FoMoCo intake as the one I have here has been heavily modified and would not be a good comparison to the stock ’57 model I have.  My contact information is at www.eatonbalancing.com .

Lorena, Texas (South of Waco)
