  I did a search on here to see some unique intake and exhaust pictures.  Didn't come up with much.  The pictures seem to be spread out over several threads?  Anyhow, I thought it would be interesting to see photos of unique intake, exhaust, and air cleaners for the Hudson.  So, please post pictures of what you have, or things you have seen.

    This is a set of shorty headers from Clifford, with the side draft Webers.  But the header hit the intake manifold.  Needed to reroute a couple tubes.  Also had to change the inner fender so it wouldn't hit.  Also made a removable panel within' the inner fender for servicing without removing the entire inner fender.

    The inner fender with access panel.  Still has full clearance for the tire to turn and go up and down.

    This gentleman had an existing air cleaner that someone had made to fit the larger carb.  But he needed two more and wanted them to be of the same design/look.

    Thanks Bent M., you are the Gentleman.  Great work, one fits on my four barrel Edelbrock, Clifford  intake ('54 Hudson Hornet). The other two my 360 Holley Carbs. ('50 Hudson Commodore).

    So here are the finished triple Webers that Bent Metal is referring to above.  You can also see the wire loom he made to route the spark plug wires.  Gives the engine a nice clean look. (yes, that is the shiny tube surrounding the head)

    Dany Spring's.  I have no knowledge of this stuff.  Please comment if you know more about this stuff.  The silver exhaust is custom made.  The intake looks to be Edmunds, the wide spread carb mount for a six.  :)

    This has got to be one of my favorites so far.  NOT MY CREATION.  I believe the intake and exhaust has some historical importance worth mentioning as well.   I need someone who knows, to tell us all what that is.  The exhaust and intake is now mounted on a 308 and set into a 1925 (?) or so chassis.  Looks like something that needs to be completed for the TROG.  :)

    The Edmunds Custom intake is on my 41 coupe race car. It is paired with a Rudy Bennett header from the late 60's. The carbs are 2300 series Holley 2 barrels. The car runs 14.60's in the quarter at 93mph.

    The Exhaust outlet, I made for an engine I built for a Marshall Teague replica owned by a guy in the Bakersfield area. It has a divider built into the mounting flange to keep the front and rear cylinders separated like a true 7x manifold does. It was a challenge to clear the oil pump and the upper control arm.

    FYI

    Attached picture of a  '49 Hudson Cpe with a Fresh Hornet Mtr with these Twin Vintage  Superchargers. It has a 060 Bore, 262 Head, Pertonix Ign, Headers, etc. He has not cut any corners on the build. It wont be raced though, its just for Street.....

    These were taken in the 80's it belonged to Olin Lang from Victoria AUS. he told me he competed at the Geelong Speed Trials in it but I can't remember when.

    He took me for a ride in it and I was glad to get out the tyres had cracks the valve stems had wire wrapped around them but it could it get up and go, great memories.

    Butch Smith built this blown big six.  Super cool, and a high quality job.

    A video of Butch and his motor.  I'm expecting to see this project completed in late July.  It's going to be fantastic!

    Hi bent medal, The photos of the 6cyl. With the Edmunds Dual carb setup look Great. Do you have any photos of the exhaust manifold on it? What did you do about the part of the manifold that 
    attaches to the intake manifold?
