clifford performance Intake
Clifford performance sells a intake manifold to convert your old tired 1 barrel on the 6 pickles to a 2 barrel or 4 barrel with a simple adapter. Has anyone ever done this or know any info as to which carb i can get for my 85 f150. as i said before on a previous thread im removing emissons equipment so i would assume that plays a role in carb selection. any info would help me out alot. i plan on gettin a 4 barrel. they sell a weber for 600 but i dont need that this is no show truck or race truck. its a mud truck so a reasonable carb will be good

umm correct if im wrong but.. you say the runners are longer and flow is better, well thats the whole idea of buying this intake, and thats why they sell it. Have you installed this clifford intake before or are you just guessing. whats the intake you have from ebay?? any other help would be great

I went with the offy c series, and a holly 390 cfm. I missunderstood your question earlier, and thought you wanted to put a 2, or 4bbl adapter on your stock intake.this is an offy with headers

What is the part # for the carburator that you are considering? I just purchased a remanufactured Holley 4bbl carb from Summit for my 351W that is rated at 600cfm. It would probably work, but you would be wasting your money because I don't think that you would pull enough vacuum to open the secondaries.
This carburator is probably better suited for your application? http://www.holley.com/applications/C...elector/0-8007

thanks for all the help and info, i was lookin on the holley website and in the list of things the carb has
<LI class=feature>Vacuum secondaries allow use on wide variety of vehiclesElectric choke for easy warm up
Single feed fuel inlet
1 timed (spark) port, 1 full vacuum, and 1 PCV port
Intended for small V-8 or 6 cyl. engines & 2 x 4 street tunnel ram set-ups
Ford A/T kickdown, does not work with A.O.D. transmissions
what is the 1 timed spark port for?? is that for the dizzy or is the full vac port for that? also with the connector for the elec choke plug into my factory harness connector

also one last ?. i was looking at this intake and it says wont work with factory manifold. why? manifold to big. Also with any type of header work, i was lookin into the heddman header on summits website. Dustybumpers you should know this one, i see in the picture you have headers on yours what kind are they
