I just bought the manifold, linkage, two Holley 1920's and a neat homemade air cleaner for $140. It even has the original instructions. I just figured I'd share. Eighteens here I come!

Nice score. I'm jealous. I'm not thrilled with my BBD.

It's been sitting for many years, but everything looks good. Nothing on the carbs is stuck and the throttle bores feel tight. I'm hoping a quick rebuild and it'll be running.

Great score. I really like this setup for mild/medium engines. Not hard to tune and runs well. Better mileage and power than a 1bbl, from my experience.

Any chance of a high-quality scan of the instructions? The Offy dual 1bbl intake and linkage kit is still available new, but I don't think it comes with detailed instructions any longer.

Been thinking about one of the dual carb sets for the 60 Wagon for some time now. Just seems like the way to go, on an older car. Would just look right under the hood with the dual carbs. Nice find.

I'll post some pics tonight. While maybe not the ultimate in performance, it will look menacing ;)

I'll be there ;)

He had that thing listed originally for $80. I sent him an email saying that I would take it and he said he had listed the price wrong. Still, $140 is a deal.
