Hi, Great place you have here. I am currently looking for a car and I am picking up parts for a future build. I will be using a 225 with TF trans fitted with a 3000 rpm stall converter. Rear end gears will also be installed. I will using a roller cam and minor head work. headers will be installed along with large tube pipe.

Clifford's website states that the Weber 2 barrel produces more hp than a 4 bbl. How can this be?

Should I use a 4bbl or a Weber 38/38 2bbl in a hot street car? Mileage is not a concern.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome! Clifford's website is like buying a coonhound. Don't believe anything ya hear and only half of what ya see.

Where are you getting a roller cam?

You technically if you build the engine right can have BOTH.

The dual weber setup will have it's own problems, and depending on what 4 barrel you use, if flow is the problem 4 barrels come in flavors that are much bigger than the webers can flow...not that the slant can handle that much....a single weber isn't going to create any more HP or torque than any other carb of similar size and function.

The big fun is how much carb tuning experience do you have, the weber is a different animal than the Holley or Carter/Edelbrock...

First choice among users would be the Edelbrock, minimal tuning and good mileage and performance...Holley is a decision between performance or mileage since the 390 provides better mileage but you need to do some power tuning to get the most out of it, the 600 is cheap and easy, and provides good performance at the track but will deliver mileage similar to a 360...

If he's planning on an OCG roller cam, then he's going race only so 600+ cfm carb and aggressive timing recurve is going to be on the list.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll use a four bbl carb. I don't know what roller cam I would use, maybe just a aggressive flat tappet cam if rollers are a problem.

I guess Clifford has a bad rep. here. Their intake looks good, is there another intake that works as well at the higher rpm's. I know the Offy is better at low rpm, any other options?

Thanks again.

This may be a good place to start.

Their intake is very good. Some people just have had issues with customer service.

You can find one on E-Bay pretty regularly.

Might want to make sure he's taking about the shorty and not the Hpak.
The shorty is a good intake though, the last hyperpak run was not...

The Shorty is the manifold I was thinking of(this is the manifold most often seen on the net right?). I will watch e-bay for awhile.

Thanks for all the replies.
