If the car needs 2 carbs to make the power you want you might look into fuel injection. Here's a picture of my 555ci.

to be honest with you i would go with fuel injection. edelbrock victor series intake with elbow, fuel rails, lines, aeromotive or magnafuel pump pump, bs3 etc would be the way to go if you ask me.

hey nubby...

do a search in here for some of madman's posts. I know they did a gold LS1 style T/A that had a ton of pics posted, and I believe that was a dual carb setup. Hel I'll do it for you instead of trying to convince you to do something different like everyone else

^^^^ thats what i figured you were looking for didnt mean to say stock hood. ment to say keep it under the hood. pacos car is simply amazing dont get me wrong that thing is a real piece of work and mad man did a hell of on it. but you see all the clearance work that was done to the cowl to make it fit and also cutting into the hood. im running efi due to running a turbo so ill be keeping it under a glasstek 4" cowl induction but since i cut my cowl off im considering switching to the vfn sunoco hood(extended version)
