The stock downdraught intake manifold opens into a common chamber, but
i can't imagine that would be the case for a DCOE manifold, that would
put the carb well into the wheel well of a 411 ;-) Here's a pic of a
520's J13 with a DCOE carb. The Manifold has separate runners. Who
ever's truck this is, he's got the stock exhaust manifold installed so
i doubt that big honkin' carbie is buying him much
