n/m

The 383/430 was a lot more popular with hot rodders than I thought.

I also just received today a copy (poor copy) of LINC/MERC Service Bulletin No. 29 (5-9-58) titled;

Component Description-Super Marauder Engine With Three Carburetor Assemblies

Fascinating Reading.

I Am Presently Looking For Any Factory/Aftermarket Parts/Information Regarding The MEL Engine Series

Also Older FORD Special Service Tools

very cool. Algon and Hilborn both made fuel injections, Weiand made blower and 8 carb log intakes. I have yet to see that stuff for sale but better keep my eyes open at Bakersfield next time.

Wonder if Edelbrock is working on heads and intakes for MEL engines now? LOL

Appreciate the update. If you only had photos...

"Wonder if Edelbrock is working on heads and intakes for MEL engines now? LOL"

Well...If not EDELBROCK, maybe BLUE THUNDER will make a limited run...

....Hey Tom, I'm surprised to see you being interested in MEL manifolds. Since you're successfully racing FE engines,...do you plan to use a MEL one day or is it just for interest. I tghink it would be way cool to race a MEL. It's even more Rebel than the FE LOL.
I think it wouldn't be too difficult to mome brew some sort of intake. Something like the meremaid car has would be a realistic and cool looking option for serious racing although a bit expebsive to obtain. Those ID48 Webers..$$$$.
Some Kinsler style system would also be near of reach IMO.
Let us know once you set up your MEL LOL
