I am running an intake that I made myself it is designed to take advantage of the exhaust maniflod heat by bolting directly to the manifold , but unlike a stock design that allows the exhaust gases to come up the side of the intake almost to the carb flange, I only heat the flat floor of the intake. I run a 195 thermostat which keeps everything plenty warm. I have the primaries toward the valve cover and I have the carb mounted with the throttle plates about 1 1/2" below the top of the valve cover. I use both cable throttle and throttle pressure linkage. I feed this with a stock fuel pump with 3/8 lines and I have a regulator mounted in front of the carb with a pressure gauge I keep it set at 4 lb. I always set the regulator with the engine running approx. 2000 RPMs this alllows enough pressure and volume to have an accurate setting. I also run a four hole 1 1/2' thick alum spacer right below the carb which then opens into my intake.
