Mark, him for doing it, me for finding it, or you for reading it?? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) That has got to sound wild. No fans, just 16 dry stacks. |

Leave it to an engineer to complicate things (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) My guess is they are running independently, using a common belt driven driveshaft. That way you don't need to synch the motors or worry about firing order. Bet that's why he used the one carb. |

I bet not. Probably just welded all the shit together with 2" thinwall galvanized pipe.
He used a single carb because he stole it off the El Camino thats up on blocks in the front yard. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) So, that makes - what? 160hp? Those are single port T1 engines. Ok, I'll give them the benifit of the doubt. 200hp. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Tom |
