It sounds like me looking for parts for my Saturn... they're out there<hr></blockquote>
Well, I'll tell 'ya. Considering that MERCURY and FORD (T-BIRD) modified them for NASCAR competition along with HOLMAN-MOODY, and the things saw early drag strip duty with blowers and injection, there has to be modified parts for the things. I am not so interested in the 3X2's (rare and expensive) as much as either an aluminum 4V or HILLBORN intake. You know that at the least, OFFENHAUSER offered something.
Maybe some of these guys don't frequent message boards or have passed and the stuff is going to a yard sale.
Just recently, there was a two four barrel intake on e-bay that the seller states was off a '57 TURNPIKE CRUISER 430. Looking at the illustration, you could tell it was off the LINCOLN Y-BLOCK (368 335HP) of that year. He didn't know what he had, but the bidders certainly did...
I am just hoping by bothering you youngsters from time to time, that I might knock some cobwebs lose...
Thanx for the reply...
