Has anyone here used the Carter Weber carbs from Langdons on a 235 Chevy with the Fenton dual intake?

Yes, I bought his CW setup along with his HEI. Was some of the best money I ever spent. That was 3 years 15K miles ago.

I purchased the Carter Weber carbs from Tom Langdon and also the HEI. Running the stock 3:90 rear with 3 speed + Borg Warner overdrive in my 55 1st series. Runs great and very resposive. I couldn't be happier. I also have Fenton cast iron headers with very small glass packs. I like the exhaust sound until I go above 2500 RPM which isn't too often. I see that Cosmo uses an X pipe. I am thinking of installing one. Would that mellow me out a little in the 2500+ RPM?

Thanks

I had the same problem, I ended up putting a set of magnaflows after the rearend, as well as the cherry bombs, it is just about right now. I would contemplate removing the forward ones and just using the mufflers that I had to install behind the rear end. But I'm not sure, maybe someone else has some experience that way. (moving the mufflers for different sounds) But I think the further back you put them, the mellower it will be. You don't want to give the sound waves any time to build up momentum. (at least that is how it looks to me)
