I am looking for a sidedraught weber setup, but am weary of the Hunter
application.

Did'nt the Hunter as well as all other Hillmans have the cast iron cylander
head?

If so than the ports are NOT the same as the aluminum head alpine.

A head change would require a cast head, hillman exhuast manifold and
hillman cam shaft.

I know for certain that early "3 main" Hillman engines used the different
head design.

To my knowlege only the Sunbeam mark used the aluminum heads.

Can anyone shed more light on this subject?

Mike Pierce at Pierce manifolds tells me that his Lynx cataloge lists
Weber manifolds for both the single and dual sidedraft setup. They are
listed under Hillman Hunter which was the late 60's post Chrysler buyout
car that came with the Holbay stuff. He hasn't tried to get one in,
because to date no one has requested one. Any interested parties can
call him at (408) 842-6667 or fax (408) 842-6673.
