Re: [HSS] 26 Fuel System Late Model changes?

I have an intake manifold which is different to the ones I have

on the 24, 25 and 26 cars. It is more rounded in shape than the

others, which are basically square in shape. I have often thought

this was the later type of manifold used in 26. It has the standard

Stewart carburetter attached.

Also in Butlers book p71. shows a picture of S/S prototype with

an interesting hot air arrangement on the inlet side of the carby.

I wonder if this photo is correct for 1920.
