HELP!! Im looking for three matching marine Rochester 2 barrel carbs for future project. Small bolt pattern bases. I think some earlier GM powered I/Os had them. Thanks! ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1117&sort=&pagenum=6" rel="nofollow - 64 American Skier 62 Classic.. 73 Ski Nautique |

Steve, Why would you even consider working on three separate engines so weak that they only needed a 2 barrel carb? There's a CC listed with twins but I've not seen the triple engine set-up yet.  ------------- ReidP /diaries/details.asp?ID=231&yrstart=1971&yrend=1975 - 1973 Mustang |

Reid, Im thinking Chevrolet power here...from what you guys tell me, it will take at least three "Bowties" to even begin to keep up with those "Blue Ovals"! Do yo think I can stack the engines ...you know, kinda like a pyramid? . ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1117&sort=&pagenum=6" rel="nofollow - 64 American Skier 62 Classic.. 73 Ski Nautique |

Oh, how right you are Steve.
As for the stacking however, I think it would be cheaper and quicker to just get some paint and create you an "orange oval", to fool the masses into thinking you had a GM. I am digging that 3 duece set-up you have planned though. I'll keep my eyes and ears open. Hey, when you kick in the extra two carbs on that set-up, does it sound like you kicked in a four-barrel,.....twice? I can only imagine what dual quads sound like. ------------- ReidP /diaries/details.asp?ID=231&yrstart=1971&yrend=1975 - 1973 Mustang |
