    That is a beautiful thing. Like a piece of artwork.
    Good luck.

    It ain't like you have a choice, that intake is the only game in town for a 2x4 Windsor intake. Unless you try using a 289/302 intake and adapter plates

    Yep. That much I know. I'm hoping that someone has experience with the company and can give a report.

    Upon further review, I could make my own out of aluminum - sort of a mini-tunnel ram. I come from a long line of fabricators.

    If I was running a 351W, I'd be first in line for that 2x4. I've got a 3x2 on my 331 and love it to death.(y) Had a 2x4 on a 427 in a 67 Stang twenty years back. Nothing like popping the hood and "nuking" the competion before the key's are even turned.:rofl2: Something about multiple carbs that scares off the little guys.:huh:

    I would really love a 3x2 setup on a 351W. I'm just not sure I want to use adapter plates. Blue Thunder makes great intakes for the 289/302. I wish they did it for the 351W.

    Yes Terry I have used this Co. I think his name is Bill Price. Very knowledgable about what I wanted which was the bogus boss, the pcs. I got seem to be very nice, I still haven't gotten around to putting together one of these motors, but I will. Very nice people when you call also.

    :naughty::naughty: An intake that only uses Edelbrock carbs, just isn't an option to me.:rolleyes: Needlessly complicated and butt-ugly to boot.:biglaugh:

    Especially since you would have to buy 500 CFM carbs and de-tune 'em for the street. I want 2x4 where I can use a couple of Holley 390 CFM carbs (or similar).

    Barry's stuff is too pricey for me. Mustangs Unlimited sells both the 2x4 and 3x2 setups for the 289/302 that are repops of the old over the counter stuff Ford used to sell. Last I checked these were in the $1350 range. BG's stuff is about a grand past that.

    Dual quad setups for fords.

    Ok gang,I did some looking.I was incorrect but,There are several companys making 3 duce set ups as well as Weber who has a bitchin looking 4x44 IDF set up.Yeah I know its pricey but it looks sooo cool.Carls ford parts makes 3 duce set ups for ford 289 up to 390 cid,so a 3x2 for a 351 should be available.(I remember someone saying thay cant get a multi carb set up for a 351 W)Heres the address:www.carlsfordparts.com.PH#(330)525-7291.Also Hot Rod Carburetion has 3x2 as well as 2x4 set ups for Fords.Address:www.hotrodcarburetion.net.PH#(816)732-5566.And of course Edelbrock has a dual quad set up as well.Sorry for the mis-info.Hope this gives you guys something to think about.(I'm thinkin bout that weber set up my self):thumbs2:
