Mark, the intake manifold is stock with a Gotha system welded to it. The Gotha system were advertised in very early Hot Rod magazine circa 1954-1957 and was a kit that cost $5.95,they had conversions for flathead 8s, flathead 6s, an overhead valve L6 and 8s. The last time I saw one was at Hershey swap meet and it was selling for $65.00 from a gentleman from the Atlanta Speed Shop. It come's with a center block-off plate and Two bungs with flanges. The intake manifold with conversion is bolted to a 54 Corvette dual exhaust manifold. The carbs are Holley 1904 from an International truck engine with larger butterflys than you would find for that same series carb in a passenger car. The air horns of the carbs were put in a drill press with a hole saw to cut the v-clamp flanges off, so you can use a standard aftermarket air cleaner. The cast riser's are from GM (part #3845535) and are from a mid to late 60's motorhome. I had Rochester carbs on the car when I first got it, but they leaked inside and out. The car has been lots of fun when I have time to take it out.
Really appreciate the interest,
