Unique "5-Pack" Mopar

[Dibbons]

At minute 2:30 you will see a vehicle with two carburetors, a one barrel and a four barrel on the same engine!

Pretty sure I won't see another setup like that in my lifetime.

Just when you think you've seen it all...

 

[R413]

Can’t imagine that works very good at all. He states it is 440 cubes.

Have you seen the 302 maverick with the lawn mower carburetor? Was out this spring on YouTube.

**EDIT, that looks like a low rise dual quad intake. But why the choke well in the center. Looks like amd aluminum adapter under the rear 1bbl. He said his uncle did it and didn’t have another 4bbl.

 

[Dibbons]

I think he said it was a four-barrel intake manifold with home-made adaptor.

Update: No, looks like a dual quad manifold.

My mother always said if you don't have anything nice to say then....

Even with a open plenum dual quad intake you are going to get some lean cylinders on the other end.

But why the choke well in the center.

Where else could you put it ... it needs the heat from the crossovers which are in the center of the heads !!

My older brother once took a bad Thottle body from a first gen Dakota and replaced it with a 1 barrel Rambler carb. Made an adapter plate from a 4 inch electrical box cover. While it was not breaking speed records it did get him to and from work until he could get a new throttle body. Anything can be done if you are desperate enough.

Did he play this on the way?

Some people have great imagination!

 

[sam dupont]

Was the plan to cruise on the one barrel and save fuel? If you have a running 440 motor, 413 intake and one four barrel with the skills to get it in and exhaust plumbed out the back, another four barrel isn't hard to find.

Reminds me of the road kill episode with leaf blower turbo on the monza.

 

[JackR]

That’s sure different.

 

[Beekeeper]

It would be idling on three barrels and getting fuel from 5 barrels when you mash on it lol!

Almost have to ask the obvious question: WHY???? Just to be different??? ...or... the person with a few loose screws and money to burn.....YES...it's definitely different.....

He only had one four-barrel on hand and the slant six carb was available on the shelf so he improvised.
