Turkey Pan ???
 
I'm may not be the smartest guy around but like to think I'm reasonably well versed in vehicle nomenclature. However, what the heck is a "turkey pan" and how did it get that name?
Thanks for your assistance and I hope everyong has a very enjoyable holiday season.

A turkey pan is an alluminum shroud shaped like a "turkey pan" surrounding the carb and making a seal with the hood scoop. In 1965 mindset this was supposed to pressurize the air intake and generate power.

Now that you explain it I am somewhat embarrased to have asked the question. It does make sense.
Thanks,

Hi all,

:3DSMILE:

Just finished making one and was fortunate enough to read another 'Thread' - where it was suggested to cut out holes to adjust idle, mixture, float levels etc.

I'm using a soft rubber to seal against the hood.

Used the bottom of the old air cleaner for a template.

Cheers,

Bernie

Bernie: Are you making the rubber seal yourself?

-Does anyone know if someone sells a seal for the top of the Turkey Pan and where I can find one??

Thanks!
