ok i was gonna go with a 6x2 manifold setup but i still want the car to be like the movie version and 6 old 8BA holleys might look kool but would have more problems then its worth..so i am going with a crossram setup instead found a nice polished weiand manifold with 2 holley 450 carbs and linkage i figure its easier to rebuild 2 carbs then 6 60+ yr old carbs. this has to be cleaned up a bit and rebuild the carbs but the more shiny stuff at shows the better
