1 Early step of building headers. Elbows tacked to flanges, more ends added to elbows, ends trimmed and tacked together.
2 Pic of fit in truck.
3 Intake manifold test fit, taped together.
4 Showing clearance to frame
5 Finished headers.
6 Headers and intake, painted with red 'ceramic' coating. Hearers turn black in first ten minute drive. Intake looks good, I like the contrast.
7 Note the loop in the center intake runner, tried tomake it nearly as long as the end runners.
8 With the stock B&B carter. Made NO gain on the dyno over the stock breathings system. On the street, wound up in 3rd gear, it made two inches of intake vacuum. Waaaay tooo much.
9 Carter BBD 2bbl off of a 318, about '78. I'm hoping for 65 hp to the ground. Feels like I made it, but haven't had it back to The Dyno Shop.
10 2bbl, with air filter. Note the fabricated adapter from the one bbl manifold to the 2bbl. Works OK.
