Where did you get that steering wheel !?

[Dunedin73]

@redneckboy360360 Its a Grant steering wheel, I got it from Summit Racing parts, you'll find them on the Summit racing website

how bad on gas is the 4 barrel? considering swapping my 2 barrel

[Dunedin73]

@csisterh same gas mileage from what I noticed with my everyday city driving. The 650cfm from edelbrock really only began to drink it when I put my foot to the floor and the throttle was wide open. I could actually watch the gas needle move down, haha.

Does it have an H-pipe or an X-pipe?

[Dunedin73]

Neither, it's just straight back from the headers.

@Dunedin73 Nothing else can be more funny to watch!

[redneckboy360360]

@Dunedin73 awesome i think i got some summit cataloges layin aroudn i might just have to order one of those

[jth9507]

I have one of these with a 428cu cobra jet. and a 4 barrel and i get 4 mpg. but its all stock.

isnt 650 a bit big? did you put on another cam? im still debating over a 500 or 600 cfm carb. im going to run the same manifold on my 66 289 mustang. did you notice a signifigant power change?

[csisterh]

@Dunedin73

haha that's the problem I like to put it to the floor alot with my 2 barrel. Was there a significant change upgrading the intake like that? Obviously there has to be some power increase
