my Low dollar 318 hop-up project

this "spread bore" design will help with the cast intake spread bore design.......

These are Square bore based but Spread bore design by the ports.......

I can still smell gas, so this was run not very long ago, which is nice! I'm betting this is a bolt and go. However, I would like to say that if anyone is breaking in a new cam, be sure to use a carb you KNOW is in great working order. You do not want to fight a carb when you are trying to break in a new cam.

I would also like to add that you can go 100 cfm's more on a dual plane than a single plane intake. In other words, a single plane intake with a 500 cfm carb is like a dual plane intake with a 600 cfm carb. Obviously I have the cast dual plane intake, the 600 cfm's will be just fine.

Yes. I have made this argument before only to be told I was wrong, but it is correct. The smaller Eddelbrocks like yours are square "flange" carburetors, but spread "bore". Somewhere along the line, people started getting the two confused, but that is the correct terminology.
