carbking: thanks for your response. 400s Carter is a rare carb, isn't it? I like the size (CFM) of it. When you say Offy, do you meam the...
Gentlemen: I would like to run an Autolite 2100 2 barrel carb (356 cfm) on my stock 300 six. What would be the best intake manifold to use with...

What year Bronco? Was it EFI?
