    I agree with the aftermarket intake. Seems like a lot of trouble to adapt everything down to the same small hole as the original carburetor.

    Always remember to use some thread locker on nut's or bolts that are inside the plenum area of the adapter plate so nothing can vibrate loose and get into the intake manifold and possibly into the engine!

  • @augustoescobar50

    I know this is old but why not plug the intake manifold barb and just run a line from the pcv on the valve cover directly to the back of the carb?

  • @stevemason6850
    @stevemason6850 6 лет назад +3

    Use blue locktite on the nuts holding the adapter plate on.6 cylinders vibrate and the nut could get loose.....and go down the intake.

      Agreed. I would definitely be using red loctite!! Lol!

      No, I made the video the day after all the parts came in. It was a make it work situation. Mods can be difficult, especially with availability of parts

    Nice installation but you really must buy an aftermarket intake manifold to utilize the full benefits of having a 350 CFM carb....sure, it'll run as is, but you still have a choke point at the carb base...the stock 1bbl will probably outperform the Holley.

    • @Hector-gk1co
      @Hector-gk1co 3 года назад

      I agree with you . this is like that holley 350 never be full throttle.maybe it make rich fuel and smoke .
      at least he could make a bigger hole on intake and some machine work on head and install bigger valves like 1.92 and 1.6 to have a good performance

    • @robertlivingston4986
      @robertlivingston4986  2 года назад +1

      I did keep the original manifold however I installed a new exhaust system. The original had rusted out.

  • @VinnyMartello

    I just bought a 1972 Nova with the 250 straight six what all do you think I should throw on there to make it run nice and smooth

    • @VinnyMartello
      @VinnyMartello 4 года назад +1

      If you want cheap big power out of a 250 do whats called the "lump port". That's what I'm doing to mine among many other things. Get you some SBC 307 flat top pistons and ditch the stock intake. Even with a stock cam some flat tops and the lump port it will make tons of power and still run smooth.

    What is a good aftermarket intake to use with this carb, also what's the best route for exhaust headers/manifold?

    • @VinnyMartello
      @VinnyMartello 4 года назад

      Offenhauser makes a triple carb 1-barrel or a regular 4 barrel. Headers are readily available. But if you want to make real power get a lump port kit. Run a 2.5 or 3 inch single exhaust that will do just fine. Inline sixes do better with a single than a double.

      The carb, spacer and single-to-double barrel mount all came from Hawaii Racing located in Santa Clarita, Ca. I also purchased the accelerator cables from them as well.
