49-53 Offenhauser manifold
Will an 8BA manifold work on early 24 stud engines?

Re: 49-53 Offenhauser manifold
Late manifolds will bolt up, but fuel pump mount heights may differ, the carb will sit at an angle, and mods should be made for proper engine ventilation.

Re: 49-53 Offenhauser manifold
What kind of mods need to be made for engine ventilation? Will the carbs tilt forward or backward?

Slant is forward. I've never noticed an actual effect from this tilt in an early car, but If I tried this swap now I might try to correct that. |
