Re: I have an idea for a Slant Six

[Jim Altemose <jaltemoose@xxxxxxxxx>]

Roderek,

Fun to think about.  What would be the advantage of the 3 4-barrel
carbs as opposed to a single high enough cfm carb?  2 or 3 of the
turbos could be run in parallel to the single carb and I would think
this would greatly simplify building the intake and tuning and linkage
and such.  There's carbs big enough to feed top fuel dragsters, they
can certainly feed a slant six.

Looking forward to hearing from the guys smarter than I am.
