Max Wedge

If I decide to move to SS can my Max Wedge use the same style intake design as the SS/AH cars, if so, what is the offset for the carbs?

Thanks,
JimR

oop's, mgmt....you can move this to Tech.

Hi Jim

I had asked NHRA the same thing for my current SS project and I was told that the carbs can have the primary bores inline.

Thanks Darcy,
Are you building a Hi or Low comp. motor?

Hi Jim

I built the high compression, it's been a real challenge. Which version are you building?

Darcy,

I'm pondering building the low comp. It's a '64 Savoy.

Jim, the low comp is at 395HP compared to 415 for the high comp. If you run the car in SS/EA that's 160lbs difference.

Hi Darcy, Just wondering where you had trouble as these are pretty simple motors for the most part, I'm thinking the mani would be the most challenging part as well as hood clearance.
