Re: Intake Manifold ‘Hot Spots’

[Archie & Julie Ann Dunham]

Aris, I have a 1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria with a 312 V8 that has the same exact thing happening, It used to have the old tea pot carb and intake and I never had the problem BUT as soon as I upgraded to a 1957 Ford Intake and a Newer Model Holley Carb, I got the Hot Spots in the exact same place! I also would like to know why it happened??? Do you have an Upgraded Intake and Carb on your 54 Monterey or are yours Stock original???
