    No more ethanol free gas in Canada?

    If your tank is buried, please make sure over time it does not leak. My neighborhood, all of whom have water wells as their only source of water, is facing an issue of MTBE contaminated water due to leaking gasoline storage tanks left underground and neglected. It sucks I can tell you.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    I finished the fuel line for now. I went old school 3/8" OE steel using 45 degree inverted flare fittings. Hopefully it gets the job done.

    Friends, lovers, Chevy cretins....Let's unf*ck a Six Pack

    Regarding air cleaners, if you are not set on using factory correct then you may want to consider these. I bought these from @kenelder here on FABO some time ago. I am not sure if he is still making these but I was more than happy to get them.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    I've been holding valve covers up to look at that. Stuff will be close I know. No heads in place to confirm clearance right now. The 1/2" carb spacers will help. Hood clearance is definitely on the radar screen as the carb body itself is 1/2" higher than a normal 4150 Holley.

    Like maybe getting the car painted and stuff like that??? :)

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    I used the Bouchillon Bracket to mount 2 return springs: Fuel line connecting 4 inlets is next before I am done. I am gonna shelf this thing until I get other stuff done.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    My 1st attempt at using the rear vacuum port as a pressure relief in case of backfire. An NPT fitting with barb outlet. Neoprene rubber cap with a tight fit.

    My final throttle cable attachment for now. :)

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Here's the Bouchillon throttle cable bracket I modified to fit. Bought longer new Pioneer throttle cable I believe will work. Still a work in progress.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Both carbs are connected. I am planning to swoop in with a longer throttle cable if I can find it, mount throttle cable bracket to driver side rear carb stud if possible. Throttle cable would be independent of carb connections.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    You are probably correct. I'll update when I find a solution.

    I do not have it figured out yet. I have a few ideas. None good...

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Trying to get linkage pivot enough aft of pass side carb allowing me to at least connect the 2 carbs with Enderle stuff. This should work.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    You never sent them to me. If you have time, I would be very interested in seeing them. I am in the middle of trying to engineer my own linkage. Not fun. : ) Thank you!

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Both carburetors are mounted with 1/2" Moroso aluminum spacers. That throttle lever clears the top as I needed. The linkage at this point looks impossible to me. But I will get it I suppose.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Got the carburetors yesterday. They look good. Looks like I will need to use 1/2" carb spacers to enable the pass side carb throttle lever to clear the top. Fuel line and linkage challenges lie ahead.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Thanks all for your input. This is what I already did. : ) I ordered two Edelbrock VRS-4150 series #1307 rated 750 cfm. The 750 comes with annular boosters as the 650 does not. I think they will work for me. VRS-4150 Carburetor 750 CFM #1307 Will post pics when they get here.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Cool! That would be a big decision though to mount. Your post lead me to this: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/nex-15461?rrec=true That might work well without manifold mod but expensive X 2 for me. But it is a money pit I am working on. I understand. Thinking... In the spirit of money pit...

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    Yes it does, I agree. I have a few engines it may go on. My 389 c.i. 340 stroker is what I was thinking. But really, just wanting to build a versatile small block setup. The VRS-4150 has all the vacuum ports/PCV ports for street which is important to me.

    Carburetors for STR-12 Manifold

    I am building an Edelbrock STR-12 manifold intake system here: Wanting new carburetors for the thing. I'll be working fuel line and linkage for the rest of my life LOL. I am seriously looking at the Edelbrock VRS-4150 series, #1306 (650 cfm). I need two. Any advice? A link...

    CNC machined Six Pack air cleaners

    Hi. Like a crazy person I am building a second 340 6 pack setup. :) Curious whether you are still stocking this part. Am also curious what your laser etching runs $ wise...for something like "340-6" on the center air cleaner lid. Thanks!!

    Hi Ken - Can you give me more details on filter elements as far as what you are doing? Thanks!

    CNC machined Six Pack air cleaners

    Real nice job! I am very interested. Will the lid finish/machining pattern on each of the 3 air cleaners be the same? A top view photo of that finish would be of interest to me. Thanks.

    Tunnel ram street carbs

    I believe the Holley 660 cfm Center Squirters were made specifically for 2 x 4 tunnel rams: https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/carburetors/specialty_carburetors/tunnel_ram_carburetors/parts/0-4224 You might consider. That's what I bought some years ago (for my small block) but have...
