i dont really know all the exact details..i  do see an adapter, but Doc worked the intake over a lot...

it is the set up Doc put together...when i get the new intake, and a fresh carb, i will pull this and sell it...and share what i find..

i am removing it because i want a driver/cruiser...not looking to go race...

I bought Docs car and am changing a few things to the way i want it...

i will prob do a thermoquad...back in the day, a q jet intake and a big thermoquad was unbeatable and super streetable and reliable...its where i will start anyway

 Ahh !  Wondered who picked Doc's car up.  Did you get the original engine with it. ?
