Carb question

I noticed the V8 Choppers seem to have a carb each side, is there an option of 2 carbs for the Ford 302 motor and if so, will it work as well as the 4 barrel Holley?

Steve,
I believe the V8 Choppers have a four barrel carb, too...just an air filter each side - but not 100% sure on this.
..........Elliot??? Let us know.

Thanks Loafster, looks like you're right. Is there a dual carb option to be able to angle them forwards like on some of the custom H*rleys?

Steve, not that I have ever heard or read of such an option for a 350 Chevy...I think it can be done, but has got be completly custom build.

Olaf, exactly right. Single 4 barrel (Edelbrock) with a Holley air cleaner using a breather on each side.
Keeping one 4 barrel tuned and just right is enough of a challenge. Can't imagine anyone wanting 2 unless it's a visual thing they feel they must have.
Single 4 barrel Holley on your 302 Steve is the way to go.
