Hilborn Fuel injection for a Ford 427 High Riser on a 58mm weber intake
This a 1960's Hilborn Fuel injection system for a ford 427 with High Riser heads. The system consisted of two pieces, two banks of 4 throttle bores, of 2 7/16" (62mm) diameter, that are bolted to the top of the intake. I believe the intake has the 58mm weber bolt pattern and spacing. As you can see, the throttle bores are straight up, not canted at all. A somewhat rare intake. It has been polished, and no identification marks are visable. This should make alot of top end power.

48mm IDA weber vs 58mm weber intakes

It has been polished, and no identification marks are visable. This should make alot of top end power. I unbolted one of the fuel injection throttle body castings to expose the mating surface of the intake.
As you compare the two intakes, you can see the larger bolt pattern of the 58mm weber intake, as well as the larger ports. There isn't enough of material on a 48IDA intake to redrill for a 58mm pattern.

Weber Guages
Two on top left hold float to proper height; two lower left are for measuring float level. Top right is tang-bending tool, lower right is to measure fuel inlet needle setting. (center tools perform same functions as the two on left, just slightly different designs).
