    1968 omc 120hp dual carbs

    ok, so each barrel could serve 2 cylinders through the divided intake manifold off of one set screw and it would be fine unless one of the ports got fouled. thank-you

    1968 omc 120hp dual carbs

    im missing the dual single barrel carbs on the manifold but i have the 140hp merc carb im thinking of just grabbing a couple flanges and plumb it to each barrel of the 140hp carb my question is this the merc carb is 2 barrel, does each barrel act the same or does each barrel have a special job?
