Intake Elbow 4150 Ford TB Flange - Black

The Intake Elbow 4150 Ford TB Flange in Black from HOLLEY is an essential carburetor transition component for carbureted performance engines running 4150-pattern four-barrel carburetors with Ford throttle body mounting flanges. This intake elbow bridges the gap between your carburetor and intake manifold, providing a direct fuel and air pathway that minimizes restriction and turbulence. Whether you're building a classic hot rod, restoring a vintage muscle car, or upgrading an existing carbureted engine, this elbow addresses a critical junction point that many overlook when chasing horsepower gains.

Engineered from quality cast material and finished in durable black powder coat, the Intake Elbow 4150 Ford TB Flange is designed to withstand engine bay heat and maintain long-term corrosion resistance. The 4150 flange pattern is the industry standard for most street and race carburetors, while the Ford throttle body flange ensures seamless compatibility with Ford intake manifolds and throttle body linkage systems. The optimized internal passage design reduces carburetor signal loss and promotes more consistent fuel atomization, translating to better throttle response and improved idle quality—benefits that prove especially valuable in street-driven builds where drivability matters as much as peak power.

This intake elbow is ideal for engine builders, restoration specialists, and carburetor tuners working with Ford-based platforms or universal street rod applications requiring Ford throttle body compatibility. Installation is straightforward: sandwich it between your 4150-flange carburetor and Ford intake manifold using standard carburetor mounting hardware, ensuring proper gasket sealing to prevent vacuum leaks. At 4.85 lbs with compact dimensions of 7 x 6.9 x 10.5 inches, it integrates cleanly into tight engine bays without requiring additional modifications. Confirm that your intake manifold features a Ford throttle body opening before purchase to guarantee fitment.
