I have seen them on everything from T-birds to Hot Rods. The think the carbs are the same as used on early corvettes with blue flame six cylinders and twin side drafts.  You will have to fab some sort of water outlet for your top radiator hose.

What I would like to do with that intake is to put two 60 mm throttle bodys from, say, 90's GT Mustang to it and drill holes for injectors to feed fuel in it. And then Megasquirt etc....

If you get the intake with the water inlet pieces (they are seperate) in good shape you can make a Y connector to go from the upper radiator hose to the two heads. Kind of like an old Smokey Yunnic setup. Or modify the radiatior to take two seperate small lines. Thermostat would take some figuring but surely could be done. Chuck in NH

Just be cautious in how much you pay for those marine intake setups.  Many of them do not include the water jacket hardware that mounts at the front of the intake at the head and if these parts do not come with the intake, then be sure to buy it priced accordingly.  Fabbing up the missing hardware can be time consuming.  Those marine intakes also require a recessed or ‘dropped’ valley pan so it’s nice if you can get all the pieces required in the intial purchase.  If you have access to any marine salvage yards, those intake manifold setups can be purchased much more economically than what I see they go for on Ebay.  Definitely not a rare piece so be sure to shop around for them.
