    I'm new at posting videos. Sorry about the music. I'd much rather hear the engine.

    I haven't seen a man a fre in many years!

      Yes! They are pretty rare. It is especially rare to see one in action as originally intended. These carburators were even restored by a former Man A Fre employee! Mr. Tim Bowman.

      @@cureforsale I had a Man A Fre on my 62 Corvette for awhile. It was a 327, 12.5 pistons, fuelie heads (2.02s), and a 30-30 Duntov cam. The Man A Fre replaced the original FI and later a single 4 bbl carb. The bottom end torque was amazing but I found I was running out of fuel towards the top of 3rd gear and it just seemed to lay down.
      I had a Uni-Syn to sync the carbs and this helped some.
      As I recall, they had a kit to add fuel to the base of each carb to overcome this but I never got one. I changed them out for 2-4bbl and never looked back.
      Good luck with them...they look awesome and will grab a lot of attention as they are so out of the ordinary.

      @@chuckduck516 Awesome! I love a '62 Vette. That would be a perfect use for the Man A Fre. The Milner Coupe and mine also have Camel Hump 2.02 heads. Original matched sets of those aren't too easy to find either. Happy Thanksgiving!

    What size are the jets and did you use a Uni Syn to balance the carbs? Thank you.

      @cureforsale  4 года назад +1

      We've had so many issues getting the carburators synced. Finally had the Man A Fre King restore them. Tim Bowman is fantastic. We are using 52 jets now. Look me up on the HAMB. Search American Graffiti.

    What does it do on the 1/4 mile..? Just really curious. There is an app that can give your 1/4 ET. You don’t have to go to the strip anymore.

      I don't really have a good 1/4 mile time yet. We have just recently finished tuning everything. The car is finally running strong and well balanced! I would love to try an app. Which one would you recommend? Thanks!
