A few more carbie units I have been working on
ABOVE: Rare Almquist slingshot adapter. There original chrome early Stromberg's (It's ol' school chrome from the 50's- so you know it will last another lifetime). You can bolt this unit to either a single two barrel intake, or a four barrel intake. This unit is for sale. Contact Dick to work out a price.
ABOVE: This is a six two barrel unit, Offenhauser intake for a 409 Chevy, with Holley 94 carburetors. It has a progressive linkage custom made by Dick himself (NO CHINESE CRAP HERE). The fuel rail is a smooth chrome polished unit that matches the chrome scoops, and the chrome oil cap. This was made for a customer in North Carolina.
BELOW: This an extremely rare Edmunds intake for a Lincoln Flathead. It is about 3-4 inches wider, and at least 6 inches longer than it's Ford counterpart. This 2x2 Edmunds intake was built for a customer in Germany. It uses two slingshot adapters with 4 Holley 94's. The progressive linkage with this unit was also custom built by Dick himself. Dick has enough experience to handle the intricacies of a tricky linkage like this unit required. The customer specifically asked that nothing shine- the gloss has been removed from the regulator and the fuel gauge. And for the real hot rodders, copper was used for fuel lines back in the day- so that's what the customer opted for. This unit has turned out quit nicely.
