Twin 3 barrel carbs
I am in the near future building a 350 to put in my 66 k10. I am interested in a dual 2barrel setup. I have been doing research, I am finding a lot of info about triple 2 barrels. Anyone out there tried a this setup or have any experience?

Re: Twin 3 barrel carbs
I'm not clear on what you're asking. The only dual 2 barrel manifolds I've ever seen were for flathead Ford engines. I've never seen this arrangement on a Chevy V8. If you're asking about triple two barrels, I owned one car with that arrangement and loved it. Basically the engine runs on the single 2 barrel carburetor in the middle, just as if it had a 2 barrel manifold. Then when the throttle is floored the other two cut in until all 3 reach wide open at the same time.
A triple two barrel intake is the most fun induction system I've ever owned.

Re: Twin 3 barrel carbs
If there is still any interest, here are a couple of photos of the Speedway dual 2 barrel adapter that was shown at the Speedway truck today at the Spokane Goodguys show:

Re: Twin 3 barrel carbs
Here is my 3 carb setup. I used an Edelbrock manifold & kit from Speedway.

Re: Twin 2 barrel carbs
amccomb was looking for a twin 2 barrel set up, the title of the thread started out as twin 3 barrel carbs. This is a new set up with the 2, 2 barrel witch Mark posted from the Goodguys show anyway that's what caused the confusion..Vernski

No worries, I am not the best with comps. Thanks for the pics those are great options. I still cant decide between a trip setup or a adapter for twin 2barrels. I am in the beginning stages of my 350 build so I got time to decide.

Re: Twin 3 barrel carbs
Speedway is good, and here's another source I've used for my 3X2s:
http://www.vintagespeed.com/ (look about 1/3 of the way down the catalog for the 2X2 adapter)
