what ya think of a dual holley 500cfm on a argi 221 me head?

[Anonymous]

was just talking with someone and we thought of casting a intake for the argentina 221 me head so you can have dual holley's or dual carbs so it will split the plenum, so that each carb only sees 3 cylinders give more top end and your torque curve will come on sooner and be very broad and flat with very good top end power what do you think any ideas on how to mount the carbs ??

Dual DGV's would be perfect, IMO, but dual Holley 2300's might be too much for a street car.

what about like dual 350's and is that one for the oz head? or is that for the me and do you mean dual webers for the dvg????

Nope, that one is for a Slant6 Mopar.
Those carbs would offer very good performance. I think Stove Bolt still sells Holley Webers for $65, factory rebuilt.

Bty: very good intake design

I with Jack.

8) i also agree with jack. dual holleys, even the 350 ones are too much for the little 6. the webers are a better setup.

Naw its not too much. Just build that engine like those Argentinians. Put a 300+ duration mechanical cam with open headers and some real low rearend gears. Rev that shiz up to 7000 every time. Hell two 350 cfms might not be enough.

Yeah, if your forebears came off the Hisponiola (http://www.frazmtn.com/~verhoeff/Newsltr0104.htm), no-one drives under 7000 rpm anyway!

Heck, twin 500 cfm 2-bbls be damned, give me two 600 cfm 4-bbls.


Some of the modified South American 188/221 sixes are so kick a$$ tough, you'll need a Bruce Lee Martial Arts degree to tame one.

Just be sure to run a hot sparkplug in your exhaust to ignite the fuel so you cna get that cool afterburner look.

Just run a single Holley carb under 12 pounds of boost...
