Rare, Vintage Edelbrock C-355 Tripower, 3x2, Intake Manifold For 55-56 Sbc 265ci on 2040-parts.com
Temple, Texas, United States

Not made by Edelbrock in years, this C-355 Small Block Chevy 3- Rochester 2-barrel intake manifold is specifically for the 265 cubic inch 55-56 engine (ports are closer together than on the later SBC's). Was on a friends roadster for years, but he decided to upgrade to a 383 stroker and had to go to the Edelbrock 5419 3-deuce intake although he transferred his carbs and linkage to the new set-up----thus making this intake an orphan. Some pitting in the water passages, but a light smear of RTV on the gaskets and it never leaked in all the years it was on the roadster (the light smear of RTV also makes the removal of the gasket very easy since it usually comes off in one piece---no messy scraping of sticking pieces of gasket). All the threaded holes are good and the carb studs are still in place. the studs for the thermostat housing have been changed to a larger size and for some reason there is a bold on the bottom of the stud on the right side...it can probably be removed or just left there since it had no adverse effect on cooling over the many years he drove the car. Has not been milled or ported.

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Exclusive Edition – just for the UK (video)
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Exclusive Edition – just for the UK Just like all the ‘premium’ car makers, Porsche has a division that deals with special requests; extras and plans that fall outside the normal options list – Porsche Exclusive. Porsche Exclusive offers a level of personalisation that goes way beyond what the regular options list offers and, in Porsche’s own words, the “…possibilities for personalisation are almost endless”. With that in mind, Porsche Hatfield has commissioned Porshe Exclusive to build just five 911 Carrera 4S cars for the UK, with carefully understated customisations to paintwork and interior, and a smattering of Union Jacks – just to make sure these are ‘British’ 911s.

Mustang celebrated with Bullit in Silverstone
Fri, 09 May 2014THE FORD MUSTANG turns 50 this year and to celebrate arguably its finest on-screen hour in the film Bullit, the team behind this year’s Silverstone Classic event in July have filmed their very own homage on the mean streets of…Silverstone. The Highland Green Ford Mustang GT prowls the Northamptonshire village before it catches up with black Dodge Charger R/T, and the actions then switches to the Silverstone circuit itself before the dramatic conclusion. ‘It’s hard to imagine a better way for us to celebrate the Mustang’s forthcoming 50th birthday party than by making this special homage to the classic car chase in Bullitt,” said Nick Wigley, Silverstone Classic Event Director.
