Hi All

I have posted this in the wanted section as well, but thought more specific here. I am looking for a spread bore inlet manifold to match a quadrajet carby to a P76 motor.

Please let me know if you have one or where I might be able to get one.

I am in the Brisbane area. Please call Guy 0414 837 819

Thanks

Hi Guy,

Im not exactly sure about this one, but I believe that there is a company in New Zealand called Willpower which produces 4 barrel manifolds for the 4.4.

Thanks, you can apparently get them new for about $450 or modify the existing one with an adaptor plate for $200 odd.

Then someone mentioned fuel injection, which I thought was expensive...just to confuse the whole situation. The types mentioned were a holley projection system or haltech ( i believe they have a 2nd hand system) - just looking at options - currently have 350 holley fitted - not good on slopes etc as most know. General consensus is that the quadrajet is able to handle the slopes - now have one of these already

If you have holley now, why not use a holley to spreadbore adaptor kit - that is what I did on my 4.6 and I thought cost was about $50.
