Which are duel pattern manifolds (drilled to suit spreadbore and squarebore) So the Qjet just bolts straight on. There is a pic here http://gallery.oldholden...Our+HR/P5120013.jpg.html

Hardiman (Redline) have most of his moulds and sell the manifolds. _______________________________________________________ If we all had the same (good) taste, who would buy all the Fords?

There is little point using a single carb on a 12-port head, and little market so no-one ever really bothered. _______________________________________________________ If we all had the same (good) taste, who would buy all the Fords?

I think you can buy a 2 barrel adapter but a 4barrel one will be a waste of time as the stock manifold is only a 2-barrel. You'd be better off putting a red head on it and running a Redline manifold. _________________

Have a look inside at the path the centre cylinder's fuel/air mix has to take. If you're going to start cutting/welding cut the engine flanges off a Redline 4BBL manifold and weld the VK ones on and die grin

In any case the 4barrel manifold looks very different to the 2 barrel one. Look at http://www.redlineauto.c...S_TO_SUIT_6_CYL_ENGINES 12-
