Do you have some contact information on Bill Kay or West Oaks?   

I miss my six pack

West Oaks: 1-800-748-6118 ext 255
Bill Kay: 630-968-9270

I took the 'cuda out today for the first time since the install of the new 6-pack, and all I have to say is :woo: :woo:! It is unbelievable. I cannot believe the difference between the single 4 barrel and the 6 pack. The carbs need minor adjustment, and I know a guy who knows these carbs very well. He has tuned many 6 packs including his brothers 69 1/2 roadrunner lift-off hood 12.50 second quarter mile car. I think that all of my cars from now on will have 6 packs on them (except for maybe automatic cars, not the biggest fan of the 3 piece kick down linkage).

Any update on the 6 pak setup?  Hows it running...did you get it all tuned up?  How is it different from running a 4 bbl?

When the car was loaded into the car trailer in February when I sold it the car was running great. Currently I am working a 70 cuda 440 6 pack clone and I will keep everyone posted on the progress of that car and how it runs.
