Well the idea is, yeah the Offy is close to the stock iron intake in design but it is aluminum so should dissipate heat better.
Also if the big B or BV Rochester misbehaves I can switch to the 283 2 bbl I have without taking it all apart again, just swap plates.
I do have a newer 2 1/2 " exhaust manifold but was saving it for a 292.
The adapter is probably going to be thicker than I imagined to allow for linkage, which I forgot about so thanks for pointing that out.
No auto kick down to allow for so that helps.
Might have to look at a 2 to 1 bbl adapter in reverse.
I know the Rochester B has few fans around here but if I can take care of the hiccups pointed out over the years it should work.
I have 2x1 and 3x1 Offy intakes also, but I'll save them for down the road. Then I might have to go with the little Holley-Weber 2bbls.
Thanks
