TKRIV Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Is there such a thing as an aluminum alloy intake manifold for a Nailhead? Cheers TomK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telriv Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Are you asking about a dual quad or single 4 barrel. Single 4 barrel never. There was talk of one gong to be built in the past but never materialized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsgun Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Always thought it was weird that edelbrock or someone never made an aluminum q-jet or AFB intake for the nailhead. Seems like there's more of them in hotrods than buicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Unless the manufacturer does a bunch of flow testing, the only thing an aluminum manifold does is save you a couple of pounds. Get rid of weight some other way. I always have to laugh at the good ol boys on Street Outlaws. They've lightened everything on their car, but the guy who owns/drives it weighs 300 lbs.
