I finally got a scale picture, here is a link to the picture on facebook.

Try posting that with Img code. I don't facebook so I can't see your drawing

Ah crap it didn't work, can somebody walk me through how to do that. I must be the most technology illiterate teen in Burke County

Your code looks just fine.

It's probably just facebook. Try using something everyone else wouldn't have to log into.

Uuuuuhhhh whatsit called...... hmmmm...... not shutterfly or snapfish......
crud. Search through the "Using the site" forum for Ideas.

Too close to my bedtime. Can't remember that photo-hosting site for the life of me...

Try using something like photobucket for hosting the photos. I think that is the one that ceej uses.

shoot me neither........................ photo something???..... no, wait.....

It's getting close to my bedtime too.

here goes...

drum roll please...



The top picture is a black and white copy of the one barrel intake that Karasik87 posted, I used it for guidance. Picture is a 1:1 scale with the measurements from the intake on my dart. It would have been easier if I could've unbolted it and traced it.

yay for team work!

Photobucket! Thank you linda!

I think that would work good, your primary carb location looks identical to the stock one, and the other two are placed to feed the other cylinders when they come on.

Plenum shape might not end up as pretty as you have it, but that won't be a big deal as long as the floor doesn't cause puddling.

Go for it!

Sweeet lookin car too.

Looks like it's going to be a little "tight" around those carbs. Remember, you have to arrange a linkage setup, throttle connection, trans kickdown (if auto trans), fuel connections and air filter(s).

Keep in mind also, that one usually runs three carbs in a progressive linkage fashion. Two carbs could be run together, but three is typically progressive.

i'm not exactly sure what a progressive linkage is (I should know that though ). But my plan was to rig linkages so that the outer two carbs would engage at 50%-75% throttle (what ever I find to be best point). Of course, I didn't think of measuring the carb width (at the widest point) until a few minutes after I finished. But thanks for pointing that problem out anyways, thats good. Anybody that see's any other problems, please speak up so they can be fixed ( I expected to refine the picture quite a few times any ways, I've already revised it at least 10 times). I should have another design coming soon, this one with a large plenum and very short runners. I also plan on swapping the T-flite for a 4-speed o.d. unit. I am working on templates for a sheetmetal air cleaner with dual 3" snorkels for me to connect the hoses for a dual 3" cold air intake.

Thanks, I drive it to school/work everyday and it makes me a chick magnet (and unfortunatley a guy magnet too THATS WACK!). I'm planning a restoration soon, it needs it bad as I'm sure you can tell by the rusted (too far to save) cragars and the bumper.

*EDIT: actually the wheels don't look too bad on this side of the car, here's a shot of the rear though. check out the high tech custom anti theft trunk lid device that was a product of the previous owner.



and another



and two more of the front, taken earlier.

That's a sweet drawing. Definitely on the right track. Do you have at least one carb laying around? My next step would be to lay a carb on a throttle bore, to see how much room the carb takes up. You'll need room for linkages, which has been mentioned. 1920's don't line up like the holley six pack carbs on the v8s
