I have these on my computer. If you need more angles, let me know and I'll grab some today. The last picture was taken with the Slant 6 exhaust still in it.

That looks really good, I am sure that size would work on my 64 Dart GT.

Skipped the Light Fandango
Does the base fit the stock 2-bbl intake?

The specs indicate the Rochester bolt pattern.

I sourced an inexpensive 2bbl plate adapter to transition from a Super Six 2bbl intake to a 350 cfm Holley 2bbl.
I did have to use a burr bit to smooth the port transition between the parts, but it was a perfect size carb for my Slanty. I did have Dutra Duals, the smaller Dutra spec'd cam and some head work.
I tried using a Holley 500 cfm 2bbl, but it was lazy ot low and medium rpm. Once it started to rev though, it mad more power. Not practical on the street with the freeway oriented gears I was running.

That is a very clean and uncluttered engine bay.

My '65 has a stock 225 with the 1bbl, a 904 with a shift kit and deeper pan, currently a 7.25 with a peg leg 3:55 ratio.
I'm blasting my 2bbl intake this week and rebuilding my 2bbl Carter soon to get installed for a lil gitty up!!!!!

my previous set up was a stock comp Clifford cam 264 super six two barrel 7.25 3.55 gears i would run low 11s in the eighth of a mile, pretty snappy that was with a 4 speed though. would be getting a solid 18-19 mpg.
Now with my current set up im in the 20-22 mpg way more power/torque out of the 225
Clifford is the way to go!
"Most of his speed secrets" my big old BUTT. I had a 65 225 Valiant years ago stone stock I raced for the hell of it that ran in the17s. Dutra saw you comin. Jes sayin. I can make a slant run 14s real quick like in a early A body and I probably will before the big block swap.
No, it's one way to go.

Dutra is a legend in the Slant 6 community and deservedly so. His Comp Cam profiles spec's, Dutra Duals and love and contributions to the Slant 6 community are are well documented on Slant 6.org, as is his willingness to help fellow Slant 6 owners.
Not sure if you are insinuating he ripped me off somehow, but I can assure you Doug Dutra is a knowledgeable, widely recognized fixture in the Slant 6 community.
I sold that motor for $2500 after driving it daily for 2 years. I pulled it to put in an EFI'd 5.9 Magnum. I had 10 calls for it in 2 days, so, yeah, I am sure glad he saw me coming. Thanks for the response, Rustyratrod. Doug deserves more recognition than he gets.
