I think that head is going to be a little long for a 1380.
Are you planning on the overhang to be in the front or back? I'd think it
would interfere with the radiator in the front, and the battery compartment in
the rear. Maybe if you overhang one cylinder in the front, and one in the
rear.....

I am planning on using a pair of SU HIF4 carbs with newly built 1380 in my
Bugeye. Will be daily driver when finished (next summer?), lots of So Calif
freeway driving. Engine has GT6 head, 268 cam, LCB manifold, etc, etc.
I have not seen this combination mentioned in any discussions. My thoughts
are that the HIF4s will flow more air than a pair of HS4 carbs, but less than
dual HS6s (all out race). Are there problems I am not aware of? Any comments
or advise will be appreciated.
