Installation Tips
Specifically designed to fit ’49–’53 models, which allowed Offy to move the carbs 1-inch further forward compared to the competitors intakes. This relocation was worth 2.8 more peak horsepower over the competitors but at the cost of 1.2 lb-ft less torque. Overall, the Offy had slightly better overall average power and torque numbers. This twin carb set up produces better numbers than Offy’s single four-barrel intakes.
Note: If used with our progressive linkage kit, the front carburetor will need to be set as the primary.
