Ask street rodders what's most important about their cars and they will likely put their cars' looks at the top of the list. The special look of a car ranges from the smallest interior detail to the ultra glamorous look many achieve in the engine compartment.
For a street rodder, the engine compartment is central in the quest for great looks and often the engine resembles a highly polished gem. Nothing is spared to acquire a special look and everything down to the smallest bolt is likely to be chrome plated, anodized, or custom-color painted. Nothing is spared in giving the engine a sparkling appearance, including the carburetor, which is often a gleaming crown on top of the engine.
However, many have a need for more than just a common carburetor that's been made to look attractive. These enthusiasts want the glamorous look but they also want that extra exotic look like that of the Twin Sidedraft System from Inglese™. The Twin Sidedraft System was designed to give the street rodder and nostalgic racer an exotic look while also providing the performance Webers are known for.
The Twin Sidedraft System features dual Weber carburetors that became popular in the 60s and 70s when they were grafted on to cars like the Shelby Mustang and Shelby Cobra. They mount to an intake adapter plate that enables the system to mount to any engine with a 4-barrel style intake manifold.
The fuel delivery and throttle linkage setup has removed the complications of the past because Inglese™ has done the tuning and setup. Every system is built with hand-tuned jetting to match a user's individual configuration. Each carburetor is a Weber DCOE 40mm (tuned from 500-680 cfm), and the unit is a virtual bolt-and-go system that delivers both a striking appearance and solid carburetor performance.
Visually, the Twin Sidedraft System can be tailored to just about any look one can imagine. The finish can be chrome, custom-paint, or even a high-luster aluminum ceramic finish that makes the system even more exotic.
With the combined features of striking looks and solid performance, the Twin Sidedraft provides a way for street rodders and nostalgia racers alike to have a solid performing system that's likely to turn heads.
INSTALLATION / TECHNICAL
Installing the Inglese™ Twin Sidedraft System is very simple, and really only requires bolting the system on, connecting the linkage and fuel lines and driving away. It really is no more complicated than that. The time it takes to make the exchange can be as short as 45 minutes.
1 With the old carburetor out, the Inglese™ Twin Sidedraft can be
mounted to any 4-barrel style intake manifold. |
2 The next step is to bolt the Twin Sidedraft to the carburetor flange. |
3 With the Twin Sidedraft securely in place, the fuel line is connected. |
4 The final step is to connect the throttle linkage. Once this step is
done, users can take the car for a spin. |
