Okay, time to look for some performance gains.
Car has a bone stock 73 318 with Carter BBD 2 bbl.
Ive done my Forabodiesonly/internet research and am planning on putting on the basics:
- Upgraded intake manifold
- 4 bbl carb
- 340 exhaust manifolds (Ive already got in a box)
- dual exhaust.
Question: what intake manifold causes the fewest headaches. This car is going to be driven on the street and Im not looking for racing performance, just a platform to put on a new carb.
Are there any good, not-too-expensive intake+carb combinations I can bolt on? Bonus if I dont have to replace all the throttle and kick-down linkages.
Not going to do a cam just yet. Down the road I may consider a 340 cam.
(Im familiar with Carter after having rebuilt mine)
Thanks in advance.
