Anyone convert 2 to 4 barrel carb? Is using an adaptor ok? Our do I need to but the 4 barrel manifold? Bj's off road makes an adaptor.
Most people stick with the 2barrells. But the people who switch to a 4bbl usually run the 390 Holley with a offenhauser intake , a header and most of the time they have a aftermarket camshaft alsoAnyone convert 2 to 4 barrel carb?

You would buy a 4 barrel to 2 barrel adapter and turn it upside down to make it a 2 barrel to 4 barrel adapter....... but, like Drednot said, why?What adapter would I need if i wanted to install the offenhauser intake manifold but still run my motorcraft 2100 2bbl carb?

Probably flooded because it was a high CFM 4bbl. My 200CFM was perfect. Never flooded. The fuel pressure regulator helped.We tried it on a buddies CJ 4.2 cause he had a 4bbl laying around..think was off a 327....motor would flood when the 4 bbl opened up...he is running a 2100 on that jeep now...it can be done but why?
No probably about it that was the issue..we adjusted so all 4bbl never opened just the front 2...runs a lot better now with a 2100...we pieced that Jeep together with left over parts from 3 other Jeep rebuilds..lol..so we were experimenting with just about everything..Probably flooded because it was a high CFM 4bbl.

Ain't it awesome how you can do that with Jeeps? Experience is the best teacher.No probably about it that was the issue..we adjusted so all 4bbl never opened just the front 2...runs a lot better now with a 2100...we pieced that Jeep together with left over parts from 3 other Jeep rebuilds..lol..so we were experimenting with just about everything..
