Hi, New forum member and new Slant Six owner (67 Barracuda). My slant has the factory intake with 1 barrel carb. Previous owner put Dutra Duals on the engine with dual exhaust. I would like to "improve" the performance a little by replacing the intake manifold and carb. Knowing there are different options out there (2 barrel, 4 barrel, super six, etc.), I would like to hear from everyone what would be my best options for the dollar. I have no intentions of racing, purely a street car. Thanks in advance for sharing your advice!

Well, the "Super Six", in the later seventies, meant a two-barrel intake and carb, and for a street motor, that's what's going to be the norm for recommendations. Find a slant-powered Volare, Aspen, or light pickup in the salvage yard, and grab the intake/exhaust assembly,along with the carb, air cleaner, and kickdown linkage. (You'll need the kickdown if yours is an auto trans.) If your yard search is fruitless, you might post a wanted ad here, and there may be someone close enough to you that the shipping won't hurt much.

Hi - Thanks for the quick reply and recommendation. Yes, it is an automatic transmission. I live in t he Detroit suburbs. I will start my search of junkyards per your recommendation. Thanks.

If anyone has a super six intake, carb, linkage, etc. please let me know!

As expensive as Super Six stuff is getting don't be afraid to run a 500 Edelbrock 4 barrel on an offenhauser intake or similar. No one says you have to run with secondaries open.
