BTW, he used to make wheels, and his company was called PS Engineering (now closed). He did some backspace machining on my wheels for my Boss 302 T/A car in the late 1980s-early 1990s.

It would be much easier to fit them on the head in an IR configuration as the spacing on the Inline is nearly perfectly matched to the intake runners on the Gurney heads. To make a single plenum manifold would take much more work. I have two NOS 1425 cfm Inlines and was looking for a place to use them. I thought this would make a good setup on the Gurney heads in an IR configuration.

« Last post by crossboss on Today at 02:38:00 pm »I believe they were the 1425s on an IR intake. I MAY have an old photo…I will have to dig through my pictures and see…
An 875 on a common plenum will have enough flow on the top end. For an IR you need the larger 1425s.

« Last post by JamesCebe on Today at 02:32:33 pm »So he ran dual Inlines I assumed. Do you happen to know which size he used 875 or 1425 cfm? If they were run in an individual runner configuration, will the 875 cfm carbs flow enough air at the top end?

BOSS 302 General Discussion / Autolite Inline on Gurney Weslake Heads
« Last post by JamesCebe on Today at 02:20:34 pm »Has anyone ever seen or used the Autolite inline carbs on a Gurney Weslake setup? It seems like they could easily be made to mount on the Gurney Mark IV heads with a simple manifold in an individual runner style configuration.
