I do not know. It has been published that Continental Cars installed some type side draft induction system on CSX2001. I have not seen any published pictures of the system. Whatever it was it got replaced with a COBRA downdraft system and later a HP289 engine with some type down draft Weber carburetors.
A side draft Weber carburetor system was dynamometer tested on engine XHP-260-2 in California. Rumors from decades ago indicated that the system was deemed unsatisfactory and abandoned. Down draft systems for V engines were well established long before Cobras.
