basically im asking if my car is running a restrictor plate. Or anything of that kind, slowing down intake of air.

The two barrel intake manifold makes the 351 cleveland engine run from air coming through two 1.5 inch (approximate) holes. thats not alot of air/fuel = not alot of power.

i wanna know if i can modify my intake manifold to increase air flow. I hope this makes sense.

And in those pictures, you can kinda see how weird the intake manifold is. Its like , 3 layers of metal/watever else, and then the carb bolted on top of all that.
