I was very pleased with the result. John Eales knows a lot about these engines. The only complaint I have is that he is pretty optimistic with his; /html/buick-rover-v8/1999-07/msg00004.html (6,966 bytes)

I have read that they can improve mid range a bit, but on cars that do not have them, like my kit car, there seems to be no ill effects. Ian; /html/buick-rover-v8/1999-06/msg00041.html (6,650 bytes)

This works well with ported heads and has a broad torque spread coming on cam at about 2500rpm. I don't know how Crane decide on the RPM range as detailed on their sp; /html/buick-rover-v8/1999-05/msg00036.html (8,363 bytes)

It had tiny little runners with very sharp turns. I used to run an Offenhauser 360 which is like a single plane manifold but with a divi; /html/buick-rover-v8/1999-05/msg00039.html (8,542 bytes)

I'm afraid I don't have any back to back experience on a similar engine. I use a Huffaker now, but the engine has also been opened out to 260ci and runs a differe; /html/buick-rover-v8/1999-05/msg00042.html (8,084 bytes)
26. Re: Manifold / carb selection (score: 1): Author: Ian Crocker <ian@btcase.bt.co.uk>; Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1998 14:12:44 +0000 (GMT); I have a 4 hole spacer. I have driven a car with identical engine but an open spacer and it felt amazing at the top end, but seeing as I beat it in the quarter mile I assume that what I was really f; /html/buick-rover-v8/1998-11/msg00026.html (7,946 bytes)

This lot only gives about 210HP, peaking a; /html/buick-rover-v8/1998-10/msg00043.html (7,618 bytes)
28. Ignition (score: 1): Author: Ian Crocker <ian@btcase.bt.co.uk>; Date: Thu, 3 Sep 1998 11:42:51 +0100 (BST); What rpm does your 40-60mph speed correspond to ? Are you using the ported vacuum source which is on the metering plate ? If you use the vacuum source at the base you will get too much vacuum.
