Was that what was called a "Ball and Ball" carburetor? Did it have a a larger top than most two barrels of the day?

Stromberg and Ball and Ball were used. Don't know if one was better than the other.

Not to hijack a thread, but did someone say 2bbl. ?? I love those "odd ball" combos. I gotta admit I pull for 'odd balls", 2 bbls, 4 cyl, 6 cyl, and inlnes. I miss the old days with V, W, X, Y, and Z stock in IHRA. I first started there in 1981 helping my brother with his 1958 Chevy SS Wagon. I loved the Pintos, Vegas, 303 powered Rocket 88's, and Corvairs back in the IHRA day's. Three of the "old" IHRA Stock killers with "odd balls" were Ray Head in a 1960 impala 283 2bbl., Randall Campbell (a current NHRA runner) in his inline six nova wagon, and J.T. Allan in his 200" V6 Malibu. I know Randall and Ray both won IHRA Stock Championships, and I am pretty Sure J.T. Allen got a crown also. These guys cut a 00 light every run and you could see the tail light glow as they cross the finish line. Back then It was how you drove, not how fast you ran. I for one would love to see more of these car built. I miss the diversity that was present back in the day.

No 2 Brl. 440's as I recall.

There was a 2 Brl 400 in early 70's

Correct. There were some HD-413's with two barrels in the Late-60's/Early-70's as well.

[GTX JOHN]

Nothing from 413 HD above block will interchange with passenger car engines...Heads and Manifolds are way taller/Different water pump arrangement too.

Dad bought a 67 New Yorker for parts, had the 440-2 barrel, closed chamber heads (915) with the small exhaust valve, small cam. I used those heads after putting in the 1.74 ex on my 383 in the Duster.

The only mopar 2 bbl. on a RB motor I've ever seen was on the 383 RB version. A two year deal for 59-60 Windsor.

I remember catching J.T with the wrong pistons in his V-6. They were for another engine combo and had a much smaller dish C.C. volume at Bristol. He never came back and I heard he went boating. Must have embarrassed him pretty badly.....LOL
Randall and Ray always were straight shooters and were tough racers.
