Wow...after 40 years in the hobby I pretty much thought I had seen it all when it comes to Mopars. But that intake/exhaust fiasco is something new! LOL

Easily the most ill-conceived slop mess I've seen, ever, bolted to a poor Slant Six engine.

Can you explain why you say this? I thought it was interesting but not necessarily "ill-conceived".

Different than the usual Hyperpak clones or other multi-carb set-ups

Well....there are a bunch of reasons. A few that come to mind:

1) A Slant Six in a heavy, heavy car hardly needs 2 2 barrel carbs. It would be just as fast, or faster, with a single carb.
2) The intake runners are greatly different for each set of 3 cylinders.
3) Round tube runners for intakes are said to be a poor flowing situation with lots of resonance issues. From what I hear.
4) Makes the engine much harder to work on. A simple valve adjustment is now a big deal.

Look at that skinny fuel line sitting right above the header tube. Not so great.

The dual exhaust is also overkill - extra weight and expense for no gain.
