The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop 2 carbs on an an LCF?

Re: 59 GMC 370 LCF 270 6cyl.
Some day I would like to put Fenton or Fenton type exhaust manifolds on it.
Has anyone ever tried 2 carbs? The one original carb almost touches the firewall. Not even room for a breather. It has the factory 'S' pipe that runs out to the air cleaner.
I have an extra exhaust and intake manifold. Could something be made from this?
I have seen some weird carb. setups on some original cars. I remember something that had one 4 barrel in one rear corner of the engine compartment, and another 4 barrel diagonal in the front corner. Cannot remember what it was. Maybe a Buick.

Chrysler, probably. There are multiple carb. manifolds for GMC engines, 1-4 barrel works well, also. Just need to make room in engine compartment.

The old dodges had the stagerd manifold. Dual carbs can be a p.i.t.a. I have first hand experience there.

Thanks for the replies. Guess I should stick with dual exhaust.
