I did my due diligence using google to search here. I read all the treads on offy-Fenton combinations as well as treads on manifold heat.
Background:
Stock 235 recently rebuilt with Fenton headers, stock intake, and Rochester 1bbl in a 1954 3100. - currently no heat to intake
Bought a t5 and Tom Langdon dual 2bbl 32 Weber carb setup.
I plan on buying an offenhauser dual intake. I have not seen this setup first hand, however, the spacing looks tight (especially at rear plug)
Questions:
1. rather than welding the casting plugs, has anybody opened them up for fittings to heat the manifold with water (of course with a base plate covering the normal location?
2. Is there clearance on the back plug location? Front plug?
3. Does the water jacket (for lack of a better term) connect to them? They must since there is a concern of leaking.
4. is this a silly question?
If I thought of this, surely someone else has.Inquiring minds want to know if this is possible
