TriPower minor revamp
These were a set of TriPower Carbs that I bought 35+ years ago.
They came off a 1964 421 HO- which originally had vacuum actuated outboard carbs Sold the useless (to me) bare ’64 intake manifold to IA Dick Duclow- and ended up with the carbs for free. The carbs had an aftermarket mechanical conversion linkage that someone had installed, and some ugly ass homemade fuel lines.

Revamp
I initially wanted to replace the ugly fuel lines- but the aftermarket mechanical linkage prohibited installing factory fuel lines that due to interference.
I liked the nostalgia of the aftermarket linkage- which utilized a replacement longer center carb throttle shaft- so I just lived with the ugly fuel lines. I’m sure I probably could’ve fabricated something much nicer years ago with very little effort- but that just wasn’t high on my priority list. Finally decided to change it up a bit- and bought a replacement ’65 center carb throttle body, some factory ’65 fuel lines & factory mechanical linkage.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
