56er six pack build

[Hevi Kevi]

the throttle plates are different, one cyl carbs only have the slot at the bottom of the plate. it will idle at like 7000rpms with "V" carb plates.
the main nozzle is also different, the older Mod50 carbs had a smaller center hole in the main nozzle, newer mod50 carbs have a jet in the bottom of the nozzle

Good info thanks. Looks like the carbs I have, have the proper plates. Just not sure about the nozzles

gots a Mod50 straight in , seems unmolested, so i'll use it to get the port map and transfer it to the 56er and or the jest of it

Yes sir, that's what I'm talking about, finger ports looks kind of short though.
Nice to see this thread rolling again.

What would a power head like this cost?

[Fast Fred]

i don't have that number for you at this time MGR, i am keepin notes on it.
talk about deck height, soon. later, got to go do stuff,

[Fast Fred]

so, one of the things needed to build such a moda is, a 56er motor, or the sum of those parts. so when you get that power head back to shop, pull the head. note where each piston crown lands at TDC, most will be flush with the deck, what i want is for the crown to clear the deck by .020, deck as needed. SST 60 spec i have is 6.375 deck height to min. 6.363

exhaust port transfer, the mapping ink is called DYKEM, get some................

[Fast Fred]

the exhaust port is huge on the Mod 50 block..................... that bein why i'm lookin to uses it

gots a caliper hear, usein the back side for inside diameter= id, the height of the port is locked in,
