Default Torker II and Quadrajet

Is anyone using the edelbrock torker II manifold with a quadrajet. I see the newer torker II 2-0 has eight holes in the carb mounting base. Will a spreadbore carb like the quadrajet bolt up directly to the Torker II 2-0 intake? If a quadrajet does bolt up does anyone have any experience with this combo.

Thanks

Big block or Small block?

Torker 2-0 is a BB manifold. Torker II for small block is a squarebore.

For small block, try to find a Weiand 7525. It is a spreadbore single plane. Out of production but you can find them around.

OK, 5061 is the Torker 2-O. It is a squarebore with dual bolt patterns;


You would still need some kind of spreadbore to squarebore adapter such as the Edelbrock 2962 in order to seal properly.

For now my car has a Torker II manifold with a quadrajet.

Not happy with the performance because I prefer the lower RPM range and the Torker II is for the higher range...(2500 to 6500 rpm)

Here is a link http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_.../5000/5001.pdf

I personally like the stock manifold but I am only looking for street performance, not racing (over 80 mph that is )

Here is the full line to see how they stack up for the RPM ranges and emission considerations...http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_...lds_main.shtml

Personally I prefer the PERFORMER series, (Idle to 5500 RPM)
