Re: [Amc-list] Does Edelbrock..etc make 290 intake?

I've always thought of it as an aluminum 4 barrel adapter for a 304.  Pull 
off the cast iron 2 barrel intake, throw on a SP2P and a 500 CFM carb, and 
you're ready to go.  We ran one on a junkyard 304 in my son's Matador for 
about 6 months while we were getting his 360 ready to go in.

Jim,

The SP2P is ok for a small cube AMC that you don't expect too much out of 
but the benefit over a stock cast iron intake is debatable.

Which one is the SP2P? I recently missed out on one for my '76 J10 shortbox 
(which has the '77 AMX 304 I used to have in my '73 J4000). I figure I'm 
going to need the extra 2 bbls to haul my 5th wheel. I'll swipe the Carter/ 
Edelbrock 600 off my '81 Chev C2500 with 454 (it's too small to feed that 
big of motor) I found an old 750 AFB in my shed I can overhaul to put back 
on the truck which is going to be sold as soon as I get one of the other 
Jeeps running or fix the Travelall (I think I killed the NP202 tcase as a 
horrible whine is coming out from under it and it lost most of the oil I put 
in over a 20 mile trip hauling my '78 F350 and '73 J4000 to the scrap in one 
load)
