[DeTomaso] An engine-bay shot from Japan

[Larry - Ohio Time Corp]

Hi Dan,

Did you have time to run a pull with the Webers on to see the differences?

Thanks,

Larry - Cleveland

Correct.  The 1400 CFM version for IR manifolds (versus 850 CFM for
plenums).

> Whose manifold?

>From Kelly:

"They are a pair of magnesium Doug Nash units that were originally
designed for Nash
mechanical fuel injection. They could be studded for the inline
mounting pattern and
were offered by Ford as manifold for using a couple of the larger
9510A carbs in IR
configuration. By fabricating a valley plate, they can be fitted to
anything you can
bolt a 4V 335 series head to (or Boss 302 of course). On the ones in
the pictures, I
removed the bosses that were provisioned on each for the throttle
shafts, otherwise,
that's pretty much as they were originally made. They have very large
throats ~ 2 9/16
inch or so."
