Someone must.

One of these days I'll make a batch on the CNC at work. Who's got a good pattern?

Would it not be possible to take the adapter for a 1bbl to 2 bbl and flip it over? I am going back to a one barrel until I can find time to put my super manifold on. I didn't notice any significant change with the adapter and bbd carb. A Hope it gets better with the super setup intake.

Dusten, sure, its been done before. Check out www.prolinefuel.com he has the 1 to 2 bbl adapter. I think its availible from your typical auto store as well.

You can flip the same adapter over if you want to go the other direction.

Hoosier I bet you will feel a little difference when using a true supersix intake because the 1 barrel manifold is probably restricting flow of the bigger carb.

...why go to all that trouble when two-barrel intakes are readily available? It won't flow worth a crap.

i used the proline adapter to put a holley 5200 on my 1bbl intake. noticeable performance increase and mileage went from 13mpg to 19 mpg. as far as i'm concerned flow is fine and i couldn't be more pleased with the results and it only took about a half hour.
my 2 cents

Unfortunately, ProLine Fuel is not doing business at this time. When/If he does start doing business again, I would highly recommend him. Chris from ProLine Fuel is a great guy to do business with.
