OK, so I have my single four barrel setup for sale and am going with two fours. Not a lot available for a 392 Hemi. A Weiand 7263 dual plane good from 2,000 rpm to 6,800 rpm, and the Hot Heads single plane good from 2,800 to 7,800. I have a good idea what I think will work best for what I want the car to do but I would appreciate some input from you guys.
The car is a 34 Dodge Highboy coupe, 392 Hemi, 4 speed, 3.23 gears, and full lenght headers. It has 10 to 1 comp, and a Howards .459 lift, 280 duration cam.
It will be completely street driven with an occasional cleaning of the combustion chambers. It will never see 7,000 rpm. The only reason I am thinking of possibly using the Hot Heads intake is because the car has a 4 speed and would tolerate the single plane better than an auto would.
Any thoughts?
Arno

I prefer the oval billet AC.
I liked this one too but didn't feel it went with the rest of my car. It looks like you have the four barrels on progressive linkage. Is that right and how does it work with that manifold? I wouldn't think it would get even fuel distribution. Arno

Any 2 X 4 setup is gonna get better fuel distribution with straight linkage but most factory setups were progressive; running the rear carb as the primary. In my case, there was less throttle response with the progressive.
