Re: 318 intakes

[Don Dulmage <big-d@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"Come on sean. A 318 4 bbl is a great performer. Manifold and carb from an 
80s 1/2 with the ra ochester Q jet works wonderful on these. Great mileage 
and power when you need it. A four barrel , unlike a two barrel does not 
need to be a compromise. The front primaries can be as efficient as possible 
giving great driving and wonderful mileage while the back big barrel stand 
at the ready for any emergency power needed and do that in a wonderful 
fashion.
Sometimes we forget how four barrels, especially the Qjet and Thermoquad, 
are designed.
