I am in the process of buying a virgin set of A3 heads for a mild turbo/EFI 351C that I am building for my 1973 Mercury Cougar convertible.
I'd like to find an unported version of the matching A3 intake manifold or something else that closely matches up. From the info I've been able to find, the Ford Motorsport intake cast by Edelbrock (Torker version of the M-9424-A331) is the one I want. I also heard mention of a Scott Cook dual-plane intake that might match up. Can someone set me straight on which intake will work best?
Also, I currently have a Weiand X-Celerator 7516 (single plane, 2V ports) that I purchased from a Pantera owner/Dynoshop operator here in Omaha (goes by EJ, not sure if he's a member of this group). He had it bunged for EFI and ran it on one of his Panteras. I'd like recommendations on an outfit that could do similar modifications for an A3 intake manifold when i find one.
Thanks!
P.S. I wish I could afford a Pantera. My parents *almost* bought one in 1972 and still tell me about it. It's long been one of my dream cars. Here's a picture of my heap:
