Wow, it's amazing to me that there is still so much undiscovered and fascinating bits of auto history like this out there.

Hover and the Ramchargers where bored shit less at one of there meetings?

[rt green]

so much for air getting in

[Ghoste]

Yeah, no kidding huh?  I'm really curious what the purpose of this thing was.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

I guess that what you get when you have a couple spare six pack bowls, air grabber flappers and some good drugs.

[Ghoste]

Thats what those are?  Chalk it up to hoax then, they roped me.

Can anyone guess how this thing may work or is something missing??   I can't see anyway for fuel to get from the bowls into the intake and even then four of  the intake holes are blocked by the plates.   Maybe those replacement metering block have holes I can't see.

Yep, something is missing, the 6 Pack.

Mytur let the cat out, it's just something boogered together.  I kept wondering for the longest time what it could have been used to test since clearly there was no air going through it but once he said air grabber doors you can see that he's right.

,  have good points  ,   was looking at the pictures for a good few minutes trying to figure out what was happening  , even to a point of comparing a picture of  another iron six pack intake side by side ,  unless there is a bolt on tunnel ram type thing missing &   80 percent of the parts are still MIA & whats left the guy has assemble wrong  
not April first is it

Naa,  I think it'll work just fine once you get the floats adjusted.

see always did say holleys are more complicated to dial in      give me a edlebrock thunder any day

you guys are not seeing the picture here...the air goes in through those 2 little holes in the center into where the middle carb mounts..it's basically the first NASCAR re-stricter plate....

[Mytur Binsdirti]

It's assembled two different ways....             

[maxwellwedge]

I am guessing it was some kind of test rig to measure some aspect of fuel or air flow or maybe it's a space/time continuum thing.....

[Ghoste]

Like on "Dude Where's My Car?" or more like one of the Star Trek kind?

[Indygenerallee]

  flux capacitor!!!!

[tan top]

It's assembled two different ways....            

yeah ,  in the top picture ! that configuration , is high rpm horsepower  , & in  the bottom  picture that  configutation  , is for  low down torque ,  similar to the 413 long ram &  short ram intakes  

[A383Wing]

so I wonder if you can adjust those "on the fly" while driving??   

[XH29N0G]

Seriously now.  Do you think this is one of us.  Someone here who posted an ad just to see if it would be picked up and discussed until the cows come home?

[daveco]

I'd guess the float bowl assemblies were for testing fuel flow through the needle and seat, possibly at various angular orientations.
The rest is just what was handy and could be screwed together.
