Chris has some family health concerns that he is dealing with right now. The ProLine Fuel thing had to get set aside for awhile. I'll ask him if he knows of another source for you.

You can buy the offie 2 carb manifold. It comes, for use with the stock 1 bbl carbs. You can either use these carbs, or modify the manifold yourself, for twin 2 bbls or the Webbers. What was nice about the proline setup, was Chris did all the mods.

Here's where you can get the manifold. Be prepared for a wait--they aren't cranking these things out all that often. Mine took 4 months to come in.

Also check with Summit Racing. They don't list it in their catalog, but can get them.

IIRC, Chris also had problems with Weber and getting new carbs. :shock:

About Weber availability.

Weber Carbs use to be made in Italy, due to labor issues they moved to Spain. now in Spain the workers wre demanding decenmt pay so the Weber factory is relocating again.

This has made it hard for even Redline, the #1 distibutor of Weber products in the US, to get any new product.

I think Redline might sell the dual Weber setup, although I'm not sure. They also sell the triple sidedraft one with Webers.

I know this is a really old post, but has anyone heard from Chris regarding re-opening Proline Fuel? or selling intakes under any other name?
Thanks, Doug

These do not appear to be the same (small) carbs that Proline was offering, but a more sophisticated carb. Call Pierce and ask what you get. The slow moving stuff doesn't get much web site attention.

The adaptor plates wouldn't do you any favours with filter to hood clearance either,in an early model it gets pretty tight for the front carb. They don't look like progressive carbs either,in my book those twin progressive webers mentioned in another post is a great deal,and they sound like they work well with a slant,I think an inline 6 chev parts supplier has them? was it Langdon Stovebolt? they are a really good price as well...I wish I knew of them earlier,but I bought a set of rebuilt genuine progressive throttle webers and a second hand Offy intake, eventually the intake will get welded and machined to bolt the webers directly onto it.....all I need is time!
