Gen I Intakes
Do you guys have an opinion a a decent Gen I Intake manifold? I have an early OEM Qjet type, and plan to use a Holley 4175 on it for an early 327 build I am currently working on. Been trying to find an early Torker but so far no luck. If I could find one, I would likely go with a Holley 4160 square bore carb. I really want to use the old style so I can stay with my OEM Logo Valve covers.
Any other intake recommendations? Motor will be stock, flat tops and 1.94 humper heads (64cc). May get a little aggressive on the cam, but nothing major. Will use the old rams horn exhaust manifolds too.
Want to avoid a Qjet, not because I dont like them, but simply for the reason that I want to use a manual choke, and I can convert the divorced choke on the Holley with ease. FYI, the 4175 is a spread base, 650 CFM vac secondary carb (List 8546)
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
