Would one of you please take the time and look at Ebay item 250666924454 and tell me if this appears to be a complete SSix setup? Also does the intake appear to be legit? Looks to me like someone spray painted a steel intake. You can reply to me via Private Message if you would like. Thank you. |

The linkage appears to be complete. The intake may very well be an aluminum super six intake, the 2-piece variety. I have heard that these are notorious for having vacuum leaks. The carb looks like a Carter bbd. Is it worth it? That's up to you. Personally, I would hold out for an iron super six intake, or get a 1bbl intake and make it into a 2bbl intake. This is just my two cents. |

Thanks for the info. I am going to take your advice and look for another super six setup, preferably from someone on this site. |

You can get all of the pieces needed for a super six conversion together, but you don't have to. If you have trouble finding the stock kickdown linkage, Lokar makes a nice kickdown cable. Instead of an iron 2bbl intake, you could use an aluminum Offenhauser intake with a 2 to 4bbl adapter, that's what I'm doing. More expensive, but it's nice. This is just to let you know that you have other options. |
