There's no need to speculate about the 2x4 intake configuration. It is known to be and identified in the article as the open plenum dual four Ford prototype with a pair of 710 Holleys. In the pictures you can see they are vacuum secondary carbs. The article said low speed operation was very poor, and the engine didn't "start to work" until 5krpm, and was all done by 6600rpm. 346 ft-lbs @ 5krpm and 398 HP @ 6600. The cam specs were vague but characterized as a "solid over 300 degrees duration with 520 lift". -Not much pop by today's standards. I can post the entire article if you want to see cam specs but I think the entire article is archived somewhere at the 335 Series Forum.

Best,
K
