Thread: Carb scoop I.D.

Tweet

I want to use this scoop on my engine without a car project. Does anybody know who made it and can I get a flame arrester/screen for the front of it?

Just a couple fast guesses --

Endurel ( Spelling way off )

BDS

I do not know if MPH made that style or not. I had the long oval style on my '54 ( Bug Catcher? ) on a tunnel ram in my first rod in the 80s. IDK, for some reason it reminds me of it.
MPH in the 80s - 90s were made in El Paso, Tx

P.S.
I do not see any reason a flame arrester can not be epoxied on.
Would the mesh allow enough flow in?

I doubt if that is an Enderle scoop, only FI as I remember

Enderle Barn Door injector scoop---------do you want to sell it??????

there is no need to epoxy any thing there a lot of places to weld or bolt a bottom plate that holds the air cleaner look in a mr gasket master catalog looks to me its a copy of the hilborn scoop with the top fines milled off china knock off ?? jerry looked at many more then me bottoms looks to be the real deal as a enderle but only two bolts holding it down ? man i would not like to catch that thing in the face on the big end?

It is an old Enderle scoop. Here is a picture of a digger with that injector setup.

Wow that surprises me! I got it off of a ski boat that I junked. It was on a single four-barrel tunnel ram fed 454 BBC. I'm glad I saved it. I plan on using it with two throttle bodies on a 6-71- blown 331" hemi.

Must have been a senior moment, I forgot that was widely used before Enderle came out with the "Bug catcher"

If memory serves me... it was a mid-sixties setup.

If memory serves me correctly, the holder of all the track records out west, the NHRA record, the unofficial worlds record(official worlds record required a 2 way average--hard to do drag racing) ran the Enderle Barndoor well into the 70s---------just sayin?????

Jerry, I know they were used on some leading cars! Great times! :-)

What car.. or cars... are you speaking of? I will remember them if they were well known, but can't tell you the setups they all ran.

I started searching some name cars of the era, and found the Frantic Four car ran the Enderle setup.

Definitely a nice score and sounds like a cool power plant you're building.
