500 Horsepower Ford Stroker Holley Carb
With a big heads and cam, a single-plane intake is the only logical choice, and Duttweiler's choice for this engine was an Edelbrock Victor Jr. He also tried both a 750-cfm Holley (shown) and a larger 850-cfm HP version. Overall, the 750 HP Holley offers a better power curve even though the 850 made more peak horsepower.

On the dyno, Duttweiler also used a Moroso Fox-body Mustang style pan and pickup to simulate an engine in a later-model Mustang along with a set of Hooker headers. Keep in mind that the raised exhaust port on these heads may present header fitment problems.
