Does anyone have any hands on experienc with a weber progresive 2bbl on a super six 2bbl manifold.I'd like to try one on a warmed up street 225.

Not exactly, but I've got one on a '74 Stupid Beetle. I 've thought two of them could work. I don't think one would do it.

That's exactly what I used to use. I currently have a 32/36 DGEV Weber carb on a Clifford waterheated intake.

My old setup was the same Weber 32/36 on a Mopar super six intake. I had to get an adaptor for a Datsun or something (for the Weber carb), then drill out the bottom pattern to fit the super six intake. This worked pretty well and I still think it might've given more low end torque than my Clifford intake! Perhaps this is because the adaptor was a pretty large spacer at almost 2 inches.

I still don't think I have this carb tuned perfectly, but it's an easy carb to get running decently right away. I can still get a bog if I floor it and open the mechanical secondary right away (not enough acceleration enrichment...need bigger accelerator pump jet).

If you have more questions, don't hesitate to email me.
