It`s got my attention, the price seems reasonable but luckily I`m just too far away!

Thats way too much for a tri power. It says its a 6 pack but in the description it says it has 3 97 carbs. So that makes it a tri power not a six pack.

Thanks for the post Havi,
Kevin Bigwin

Most of the motorheads call any tri-power set-up a 6 pac----after the highly treasured 6 pacs on Dodge and Plymouth 340/440 high-po engines.. Bill

I guess Y block guys arent motor heads then as I race with over 30 fellow yblockers and several run tri power and none refer to it as a "six pack"

I guess then I run an "eight pack" since I run the dual quads. Do motor heads call the dual quads eight packs over in the mopor world?
