Smile New addition to the car

If I knew how to post photos I'd show you what I'll be adding to the car later this year, but since I don't you will just have to go to Ebay and type in the #s

Item number: 180155740539

You couldn't wait for me to pull mine off for you? Actually running really well right now, but that last incident where the needle & seat didn't seat and dumped a bunch of raw fuel into the cyclinders was about enough to make me take a sledgehammer to them.

Curious, what heads would be needed to make that intake work? Would a low riser through high riser work? Edelbrock, low, medium or whatever?

I assume tunnel port/wedge would NOT work.

That little setup will make an FE sing.

It looks very impressive.

I have noticed, many people that look at my engine and one with a webber setup do not know the difference.

Fred, will you buy me a new GT40...since you are in the money spending mood.

Fred, I hate to burst your bubble but they will destroy the looks of your car. Thay look pretty beat up and are made in China for farm tractors. I'm told the threads are metric and won't fit your heads. As a friend I will give you $500.00 plus S&H. I will even put them on my car just to show you how awfull they really look!!!!!. Just being a friend.

Jim

The secret is out and the Wife didn't threaten to throw me out, so Jim it looks as if I will have to turn your offer down. Thanks any way.

Fred, You make sure your wife pays me back the $500.00 I gave her to sell me the unit!

That is going to be fantastic on your car!!

Fred,

DO you know if they have the 3 progressive hole drilled in them. Just curious because Pierce said all of their V8 setup have the 3 progression


Cool Setup.

What I know about Webers wouldn't wet the bottom of a thimble. When the time comes I'm sure I will be picking everyones brain.

Fred,
If you've not pulled the trigger yet give Pierce in Gilroy a call. They did the setup on the GT40. I told them my engine specs and they did the initial setup. We only dropped the mains down one size. They come highly recommended. You are going to love the throttle response!
