6-pack on a 6-71 Blower - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69cruiser · 09-09-2006, 11:02 PM

I had an interesting brainwave, I was thinking that a 6-pack(3x2bbl) would look awesome sitting on top of a 6-71 blower, but as far as i know, no one makes a kit to do this. Has anyone ever attempted this? or does anyone know of a company that makes/could make and adapter plate for this? Or how I could go about making my own?

Thanks,
Cory

not hard to do, just gona cost alot.

do you have any of the parts???

make a rubbing or cut out tagboard patter from the top of the blower and the top of a 3x2 intake, take them to a machine shop and say make it.

check into 3x2 for a tunnel ram intake, the top plate for it may swap over.

Don't have the parts yet, but should have them soon. Do you know anyone who makes a 3x2 tunnel ram? and besides this method, is there any other methods to do this? are there any companies that could CNC machine an adapter plate that could bolt onto the blower?

im not finding any yet, but im wondering if a 3x2 can even flow enough air to a feed blower.

Should flow enough air.A single 4 bbl will.As far as it goes there are a lot of guys using sheetmetal intakes on engines these days.Probably be about as cheap to use an injector like on an old drag car.

actually about 5 minutes after making my last post, I found a company who makes an adapter plate that will bolt onto any 6-71 or 8-71 blower. The name of the company is "Hot Heads Reasearch and Racing Inc.".
