Is this quad two barrel manifold set-up a known period performance item or an adapted fit of the Caribbean dual quads set-up?


That's a bling-over-bang" mash-up favored by rod builders, but those adapters are not even period correct. Those of us who were there remember when the 4-bbls came along, all the 97s went into the scrap pile. There aftermarket 4-bbl intakes for the Ford flathead.

This 4x2 conversion might draw car show comments from the great unwashed, but guaranteed it wouldn't produce as much horsepower or driveability as the Rochester 2x4s.
