Looking at this for my 392, but Weiand doesn't have a site and I can't find any more info than on the Hot Heads site. Anyone running one of these? How do you like it?

What specs are you tring to find?

The 7623 is lighter, has straighter and larger ports, and fits all Chrysler early Hemi combos nicely. Jegs Summit or Dale Welch sell them for about 300 bucks.

I ran one on my 392 with 2 Edelbrock 600's for a while. It looked great, but ran 2 tenths slower at the dragstrip than my Hot Heads single four bbl. manifold with a Holley 750 vac. sec. carb. I went back to the single four setup and sold the dual four setup on Ebay.

I am running one now and it performs well. I'm using two 600 cfm eldebrock carbs with progressive linkage. It has good response from idle up.

I am running one of these on my .030 over 331 '54 hemi with 12.5 pistons, roller cam and a magneto in my dirt track car. I've got two adaptors and am running two big Rochedter 2GC carbs and everything works well, I don't think this is what you need, but I thought I'd chime in.

"12.5 pistons, roller cam and a magneto" with "running two big Rochedter 2GC carbs" neat, next is more compression and Hilborn?

Injection is a no-no with the group I run with. Quite frankly, looking good is more important where we are. We really don't want to destroy these historic old cars. I hit the wall three years ago and it wasn't a pretty sight.

Vintage dirt, got pictures?

Lee,

I've got them my computer at work; I'll get them and post them tomorrow. Thanks for the interest; I was starting to think this forum was dead. (I am also on the Flathead V8 forum, and they get about 7 new entries a day.) Nice to see someone is interested. When I go to races in the hinterlands, I get lots of comments that it's a "flathead Ford' (see, the plugs are in the middle of the heads"). Oh well, it's my cross to bear, and there are some people out there that know what's up and appreciate the car.

Thanks for the info. guys. 392Heminut, that is interesting. This would be going in a Model A styled in the late 50's/early 60's. While I do want to run it at the track, most of the time it will be cruising or sitting looking pretty. I've read lots about the single four being a better performer, but I can deal with a 2 tenths loss since it's not going to be a drag racer first and foremost. That's why I'm looking for dual quads. I thought about a multi carb/Stromberg set up, but decided against it for a few reasons.

"I get lots of comments that it's a "flathead Ford' " I would think it was an Aurburn conversion, for the econo minded.......

I hate to say it but this site is kind of dead comparied to moparts, forabodiesonly, and bigblock.com. I'm an early Hemi person so I look her a lot to see if anything is new and post some times. I really don't have any experience in these motors yet, but...........one of these days.

"this site is kind of dead comparied to moparts"

If someone weeded all the nonsense that site would be 15-20% of its current post level.

I love this site because everyone is up front and honest without the BS. It's slow and easy going. Suit's my still anyway.
