Hello, Thank you in advance to anyone that can help.
I have a 1958 ford Fairlane with a 292. Code on my intake manifold is ecg9425H two barrel. I want to find a four barrel intake to fit this vehicle, so i can place a four barrel carb, without losing bolt patterns etc...pleaaassseee help.novice mechanic.

Your best bet is a ECZ 9425 B manifold. You are then open to a lot of easy swap carb options.

Has anyone used an ECB-9425-B with a 4 barrel adapter with any luck. What would be the difference between an ECZ-9425-B and an ECB-9425-B with an adapter?

Henry; best post your request to buy a manifold under the Classified section of this site.. 40 Desoto; The ECZ -B intake is the later 1957intake. The earlier 4 Bbl intakes work o.k. at the low end, with a proper fitting adaptor, but don't have the flow capacity of the later "B" intake.

The ECZ-B four barrel intake is essentially a bolt on when dealing with 1955 and newer Y heads. Here’s the link to an engine build article showing some of the performance modifications performed to an ECZ-B intake that went into a 1956 Victoria. The intake information is about 2/3’s of the way down in the article. http://www.eatonbalancing.com/blog/2015/05/01/unported-iron-heads-can-still-make-over-a-hp-to-the-cubic-inch/
If looking to purchase one of these manifolds, then posting an ad in the classifieds on this site will possibly put you in touch with someone that has one for sale.
