We had an Almquist slingshot y adapter on our 32 and found fuel pooling in the ends of some runners. It's now gone and an Eddie Meyer twin in its place , the slingshot looked fast but didn't perform as well as a better designed twin carb manifold.
What makes you think this is just an adapter? It is a complete Edelbrock intake.
