Howdy guys,
So being president of the only car club at school, i gotta come up with neat stuff to do. My idea is to rebuild a 200 with a late 200/250 head. Since it might live its life on a stand and the school will be paying for it, i got some neat ideas to test out on it.
Special intake work to be done:
-Hog out center hole so something like a Holley 350 or any other 2bbl can be used
-Cut off 2 center intake spots from other 2 other heads and weld them in so tripower is possible
-Have a normal 2bbl carb to weber adapter
-Have special 2bbl to 1bbl adapter
-Have special covers made for the other 1bbl spots that were welded on.
All this allows for the use of a normal 2bbl if wanted, and have the extra 1bbl spots sealed with the special cover
Allows the use of a weber be it a 32/36 or 38/38 with 2bbl to weber adapter with other 1bbl spots covered
Allows the use of tripower when wanted, take off covers for other 1bbls and put on the special 2bbl to 1bbl adapter plate.
The linkage would have to be flexible and easily changed for each scenario but i think this is a crazy neat idea!
I know theres valve work and stuff but this is just about the intake manifold for right now
What do you all think?
