Dual quad on my 355????

So I have a chance to buy a offenhauser dual quad intake with two edelbrock carbs on it. I have a 355 making 10.2 to 1 compression. I am currently running a single edlebrock 600. It runs very well as it sits but that dual quad sure looks sweet and I have driven the car it is in (67 camaro 327) and it is FREAKIN FAST . So I just wondered what you think of going from my stock set up to the dual quad. Keep in mind gas mileage is of no concern to me.

Is your Edelbrock a dual feed or single feed quad?

Dual quads are pretty cool! Performance increase may not be a lot but the look alone is worth it if gas mileage is not a concern.

Re: Dual quad on my 355????

my current carb is a single feed. The dual setup comes with everything. One concern i have is whether or not I would need an electric inline pump since I currently am using a mechanical one.
