Can a carburetor be pornographic?

One of 13 ever made for the 351 Cleveland.

I am going to show her my 'O' face, you know what I mean.. 'O' 'O'.

So what's the story on these 13 ever made?

Now that would be a cool intake and carb set up to own.

I'll give a nice Harley Davidson Sportster in trade (Seriously!!!)

I sold off all of my collected stuff last year and was shocked at what I was offered for this. It was resold later for $18,000 and is now for sale again for $20,000.

These were made by Buddy Bar for Ford for Trans Am racing and have Ford part# on them. Ford pulled out of racing and no others were ever made. I got 2 of them and Bud Moore got some as well.

We could not get much out of them below 5000 rpm and they basically were junk as far as performance.

Years later similar intakes were sold by Moore and others to Pantera owners - they seemed to work a little better. These repops are selling for $5,000.

I am trying to find a picture of a 351C intake with 2 rows of Autolite inline 4's. Ford made a very few for the 427's and they made one and only one for the 351C.

Moore made a few dual inline 4's on cross boss intakes but nothing for the Cleveland. The one I had was still in the shipping box from Ford. I never did anything with it other than to open the box and look at it. It sat on the shelf since 1972.

Is this one of those instances when the manifold gets more attention than the carby?

I'm a huge fan of the airgap!
