That's funny... are you suggesting I build my car for others and not for myself? LOL.. I want to see my carburetors not just when I park it and people see them...
I want to see the movement of the linkage when my foot goes down...

There you have it... you want to see them as you drive so you stick yours out the hood. I don't want mine sticking out of the hood, so I'm hoping the hood clears, or straight to the RC they go where I KNOW I have clearance... LOL

It is a little hairy coming up over a hill on a curve on the back roads and can't see nothing but those big deal quads in your way LOL... I think they were meant for more straight line...

…. and not only that, my cars mostly sit outside. And, every "old muscle car that rolled out of the factory with dual quads all were underhood… since the 50's" Old Chrysler fire power hemi, gen II hemi, 283's, Max wedges, Thunderbolts, etc etc

I hated trying to look right with the supercharger on my vette, it was a huge blind spot.
 
Oh yeah, the "original old school" from the factory... :thumbsup:

Chevy even put factory dual quads on 283's ?? Or the 427 Ford dual quads?? 409's?? Of course, Chrysler leading the way.... 1950's and 1960's were the years of dual quads, six packs (tri powers) from the factories. All under hood. And the rodders back then added there Doug Thorely Headers and hit the streets!!! This is old school to me.
 
Sorry, but the 50's were old school before old school was cool.... :D Watch the fire come out of this beast....
