any carb gurues out there

[40 Chev Coupe]

I have a Holley 84010 carb with dual inlets. My problem is the inlets go straight out, I need them to go done on 45 from the get go. Does anybody make a part to do this? Need this for aircleaner clearance.

Yes, and no.  You can change the bowls to the center hung float type, they go down at 45 degrees.

Holley makes a spacer that will raise the air cleaner up about an inch.

I don't have the hood clearance. for a straight out connection.

Like Enjenjoe stated, yer only bet is gonna be "center hung" float bowls.
they are the only Holley float bowl that I know of that has the outlets at a 45* angle.

but then again, I could be FOS :oops:

Can't you use the banjo style fitting. You can have it at any angle then.

That's a bit more fancier than the one I have Frank...but it would do I suspect. I was thinking of  a similar fitting that are use on brakes hoses. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they fitted the Holley. They look like a similar size and thread.

See the fittings under the fuel log?

Those are Earls 90 degree with swivel so you can point them in any direction.

They make 45's in a similar configuration.

You'll need a straight Holley-Earlys AN adapter for the female swivel end.

The swivel fttings are also made with NPT so you can go straight to the fuel log or block.
AN one end, NPT on the other.

The other configuration is AN to AN.

The ones in the pic are #6.

Very dependable, don't leak and I have a larger version - #10 - in a remote oil line.

Here's a pic that's a little closer.
