The Marauder used 3 Holley modified 2300's totalling 900 cfm; you could hear it sucking from blocks away when goosed.
Same setups used on the 390-427 FE's.

If Bessie was 3000 miles closer Id have been there by now! What tranny is behind the 430?

Mike, no problem, but if you ever change your mind you know where it is. I'll likley pull in within the year and will seriously be looking for a home for it then.

Merc, that's part of the problem... the tranny and rear end are all stock and the 430 MEL is just too much engine for them!!! I have the four barrel linkage block off just so my foot doesn't accidently slip and blow the truck to bits.
