Thanks for the info. I'm on the list for one of John's intake but I was curious as I don't  think I'd seen one before and never heard anyone that had the "wants" for one either.

   Thanks

Neat if you have a 239 or 256.

Mike, located in the Siskiyou mountains, Southern, OR 292 powered 1946 Ford 1/2 ton, '62 Mercury Meteor, '55 Country Squire (parting out), '64 Falcon, '54 Ford 600 tractor.

These Edelbock 4v have the smallest intake ports, take teapot carb, and more a wall hanger, unless youve got 239, the blue thunder made alum 4bbl holley intake, i believe they suited more top end, but then johm mummert,s new one incorporated more low through mid range perf and is best there is, others may have input?

I don't know. It looks like it's for '56 or older, the ports look small, so probably older. It's the first Edelbrock 4v I've seen since I've known about Y Blocks.

     Just saw an aftermarket 4bbl aluminum intake on Epay and it made me wonder if any of the aftermarket (and I have no idea what if anything was available) stuff performed better then the Ford B intake?
