That would involve milling away the one barrel carb flange and welding/brazing a 4 bolt flange on to match the 2BBL base, with a minimum of restriction between the carb base and the manifold runners. I believe there's a Bendix 2 barrel carb for a 270 cubic inch MOPAR V8 from the late 1960s that might be a good match, displacement wise. Jerry
