Most all the Brazilian intakes I have seen are for Webers, which one are you talking about. Do you have any pics of it.

I have no pics, but I though that I had seen a 3x2 heated, and it took 2Gs carbs.

Bonehead: You can go directly to the "Engine Racing" web site (Brazil) via the following web address: http://www.engineracing.com.br/They seem to have the 3x2 intakes you're looking for (and other interesting "inline" stuff as well). Hope your Spanish is better than mine . . . Russ

Bonehead:
PS:
I checked the current exchange rate and as of today, it's .576203 US dollars for every [one] Brazil Reais [R$]. So, for example, the tripple side draft weber manifold is priced at something like R$ 578.00 and that translates to $333.05 US. Of course you'd have to find out about shipping, import/export fees, taxes and such to determine the real "delivered" cost but at least you can get to a basic product price in US dollars.
Hope this helps.

They speak Portuguese in Brazil, similar to Spanish, but is like a combo of Italian and Spanish. I had forgotten about Danilo's website that has the intakes for the American carbs. But, yes the duties and shipping and all the Customs red tape hardly makes them appealling.

Good grief! I knew the language of Brazil is Portuguese. Don't know what I was thinking but no wonder I thought my "Spanish" was not so good.

Yeah, it kinda' throws you a curve when you first see it in written form, you think, ok this is Spanish, and start hunting for any common Spanish words you might know...and can't find any :D.

Guys, On the top of the Brazilian website, there is a "Translate" button. That makes it easy!

Chopped 40:
I don't see a "translate" button on the view of the web page[s] I get. I suspect it's a browser-specific or [down] version issue on my part. Probably need to rev my OS and then my browser[s] to get more current. Even with a Mac, that's never a fun project.

Bonehead says "I have no pics, but I though that I had seen a 3x2 heated, and it took 2Gs carbs." It may be this the one you´re looking for: http://www.engineracing.com.br/coletor%2...aquecimento.htmIt is a 3x2 waterheated intake and it´s suitable to use a carb called here DFV. If the "2G" you´re talking about is the Rochester that came on Chevys like Chevelle, Camaro is the same bolt pattern. I know because I once used a 2G (from a 307 Chevelle) in my Opala on the top of a DFV stock intake. So as the bolt pattern won´t be a problem you can buy it without any worries. The main concern is about the shipping costs.
