What's the best mixer and regualtor for a Ford 429 that is bored .40 over and stroked to a 514? Running aluminum heads and a .600 to a .620 solid lift cam. Running around 550 hp

2 - 425'S on a dual quad manifold.

Don't know any kit for a single plane intake?

there is a mixer bigger than a 425 (cant remember what it was) but it wasnt THAT much bigger... so with that in mind the 425 is the biggest (of the readily available) mixer available. i dont think you can feed that much power thru one 425...

Guess I better get a dual plane intake then huh haha
most of the guys that do duals, use the adapter thingy that goes on a single carb intake and they evidently work fine... i just always thought a dual quad intake would make for a neat (orderly) install for dual mixers.
 
Pro Comp makes a low rise dual quad intake for the 429/460 but I would go with the adapter thingy. One throttle body to deal with.
 
I have 2 425s on 521 stroker.

Works good!

Worked on propane system some!! :goodfinge
