I can also get 2bbl holleys pretty cheap (lots of guys I know race with them) do you think a holley could work with the intake?
The bbl arrangement of the 2SE carb is inline, with primary venturi forward and secondary aft.
It's like a four barrel cut down the middle.
The bolt spacing is about 3" side-to-side at front, 2.5" side-to-side at rear, and about 5" front-to-back.
This doesn't seem to match Holley/Carter square, Spreadbore, Q-jet, or Thermoquad patterns.
This doesn't bode well to fitting a holley 2 bbl, which has conventional american side-by-side bbls on a single throttle shaft.
I doubt if the holley can be rotated 90* and run both barrels at once, because of the odd bolt pattern.
One advantage of progressive linkages (primary-secondary) is that the air flow thru the primary is optimized for low-to-mid throttle response, and that's where a low-speed 4wheeler needs the torque.
There's NO room vertically to install an adapter (unless the holley is significantly lower/shorter than the 2SE).
BUT,
Edelbrock makes a manifold.
It has a generic 'base section' that bolts to the heads; ($160, PAW catalog fall '97)
There are two 'top sections' available, each is about $85, PAW catalog fall '97)
* One fits the 2SE carb.
* The other fits 4bbl carbs with holley square pattern.
** This would work with the 'baby' Holley #0-6299 4bbl 390cfm carb ($386, PAW catalog fall '97), or any low cfm rebuilt 4bbl square pattern carb.
Note: The factory 2bbl manifold flows very well, and the edelbrock (in 2bbl form) doesn't flow significantly better.
160 + 85 + 386 = 631 > weber at $425.
