Notice the differences in the intake manifolds between the two shots?
In this picture the carbs are mounted with the throttles all in line.
I'm told there were only a couple of these intake manifolds cast.
For linkage reasons I would have thought this was the best design? They didn't like it because it didn't make as much power. Line of sight from the throttle opening to the valve.
"They" thought that was important then. Today it is shrugged off as "insignificant"?
