Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
Ron, can you still get offy heads numerically lower (below 400) I only seen 425 and 400's listed. If you can then go for it.

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
compression is torque, carbs are RPM. Read the book.

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
I have a 49-53 Edleb. 4b manifold that I want to use on a 59AB. Because it is for the late engines, the carb surface is on a slant. Does anyone know a mfg that makes a wedge shaped adapter plate to convert the late manifold to a parelel surface (block and carb mounting). Would love to just trade it for a early model.

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
He wants to un tilt the carb.
The 8BA manifolds tip the carb forward to counteract the 8BA engine that's tilted back, so the carb ends up level. You see? Put this 8BA inlet on a 59A or earlier engine (that sits almost bang on level, the carb now tilts forward. I think boat type places may have carb wedges, but used to see them in speed catalogs, doubt you'll find one that adapts bolt pattern and wedges though. Martin. |

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
Way back in the day, 1963-65, I had a coulpa Flatties, stock except for and Edmonds 2x2 w/ 94's. I swapped this setup around on the otherwise stock engines and also used the stock single deuce. So many years & beers ago, but I don't recall any particular driveability issues with either of those setups.
But let's have a look here: Flathead Ford Intake Manifold Smackdown Written by Marlan Davis, HotRod Magazine October 24, 2012. Got real nice pictures too!!!!!

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
Just to clear up possible confusion.
My post about un tilting the carb, was a response to a post that seems to have disappeared! Not me going mad. Martin. |

It takes about 20 minutes to setup & mill. And for the worriers, the bolts or studs don't care if they are on a slight angle. |

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
Thanks guys! I have a couple of plates that may be thick enough to mill at a slant also.

Re: 2 deuces vers 0ne 4 barrel
For this application, I think JWL's book would be the best one, You can see the results of a modification.
