What is this??

:BSMeter: I'm calling it BS. Looks like two Holley float bowls mounted on an intake (how's the air get in)? Don't see how this could ever do anything without throttle plates or any other way to take in air.
 
I call that an attempt to make 2,000 bucks off a 6 pack intake

complete load of ****

: Don't see how this could ever do anything without throttle plates or any other way to take in air.

exactly ! you have to have air to make an engine function
 
I agree, it's got to be bogus and it's been on fleabay previously. At $2,000.00, he's going to die with all that junk. Check out all the assembled pictures; why is it put together two different ways?

I cannot understand what the braided lines are doing? Forget about the fact there is no air/fuel mix possibility as stated above. LOL, this just might be some Chevy fan trying to do a social experiment on Mopar people ;)
 
Sounds like the guy at the swap meet he acquired it from, saw him coming! Those are just float bowels off a holly that have been turned into a fuel shutoff of some kind. They probably were not even intended to go with the manifold. "found in a dumpster". Explains a lot!

Not BS at all. The Holley/Hoomperschnarkle 6213 mod was intended for use on low torque zero rpm engines for export to Scandanavian countries, East Germany, and the Dutch Lowlands.

The ingenious combination of extremely high vacuum coupled with no fuel flow prevented engine wear and overheating, as well as lower as-installed engine height, making it possible to fit in the trunk of a DAF without banging the lid.

The ad specifically mentions army green paint, a clue that this was an early (Boxing day morning, 1969) prototype knocked together by Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm, and a couple of trusted assistants.

The term 'found in a dumpster' is actually a euphanism for 'spirited away while no one was looking'. This is a true find.

It's common to use Holley fuel bowls as fuel level control on Hilborn injection systems and it almost looks like this is left over stuff from someone's fuel injection project. The aluminum blocks the bowls are mounted on look cast as if they are a manufactured part you can buy, and the funky swivel brackets might be how they were mounted in the car, boat or whatever. So put that together with a rusty six pack intake and call it "experimental" and list it for big bucks hoping someone will fall for that BS. Is it just me or has BS become a new career path for many people?

OK, you've convinced me....where's the BUY NOW button??? :tongueflap:...............:rolling::rolling::rolling:
 
It's been floating around the web & E-scam now for a while, it's not assembled correctly & allegedly it was a fuel level control for a forward fuel tank... It seems someone is trying to make a killing, on something that's not what it's represented as... BS a bunch of part in a box, from a former Chrysler engineer, just thrown together wrong...

Bingo we have a winner... Exactly Meeps, this has been being passed of as something it's not far a long time now... I have photos of it from like 3-4 years ago now...
 
Really, so the scam has been out for a while. I may send him a message saying I'll give him $300.00 for the intake shipped and he can keep the rest of the junk and the BS story!
