You will LOVE the tripower on your big car ( not the mileage however). Jeff

You will also need one that has at least a 3/16" + shoulder on it. Hard to find, but you can make one. IME without this, the rod is not at the correct angle to the carb., & it causes Probs.

My end carbs leak occasionally, but no other issues on mine. I rebuilt the whole mess myself with no issues. Had to take it all off a 2nd time to go through it all again to get it exactly right. It is cool, but I think the right 4bbl romps better. Not the same eye candy or war wooping when you open it up though.

as for my setup... i'm about $300-400 away from the rest of parts I need (sounds like a lot but it's just a few small things here and there that add up)... More importantly I have a 65 setup and a 64 engine so I my manifold won't work with it.. This really slowed down my install :-)

Mike,
Did you ever get it installed? If not yet (because of the heads), maybe I can assist you:
-I have a 64 intake you can use your carbs on
-I have 65 heads; #76
