Sweet set up but I would like to see a stealth exhaust exit that would snake out the back so I wouldn't have to cut my fender wells out. Put me down for one if you start to manufacture them.

Okay, here goes. I've heard a lot of guys are interested in multi carb setups for the S8. I'm currently working with someone to build an intake manifold for 3 Holley 94s and a dual fenderwell exhaust header. I'm going to try and attach some photos. Let me know what you guys think(positive or negative comments welcome).
Thanks!

Jim,
I'm with you on not cutting out the fenderwells, I removed the washer bottle and bracket, and am going to put 2 four into one collectors between the back of the inner fender and the cowl edge(there's tons of room down there), with a pair of turnouts with flanges so I can cap them, then I'll have a full exhaust tapped in to run to the rear of the car(I want to keep it legal, so I can actually DRIVE it.) At first I had the crazy thought of having them vent through some modified portholes, but I'd probably forget and burn some vital parts of my anatomy when leaning against the fender after a drive.

Here is a photo of the header exit on the 50 Buick.

How hard would it be for you to adapt this setup to run 2 carbs instead of 3 ???

has any of you guys ever used those holley weber progressive 2 bbl. carbs like the ones that came on pintos and vegas. I used to put them on jap cars that had those complex emission carbs in the early 80's right before fuel injection came out. there used to be a ton of aftermarket parts for them.

GH,
That looks awesome! I especially llike the turned aluminum.
Markyboy64,
On this manifold, I think all that would need to be done is to put a block off plate on one of the carb bases(center probably) and mount a dummy carb there.
I'll keep updating as things happen, I planned out the exhaust tubing last night, It's kinda hard with the engine still out of the car though.
