crossram or tunnel ram?

Tunnel rams are generally suited to high rpm use, and although some people run them on the street and claim to have no problems, usually they are more dragstrip oriented.
With all that, I still like multiple carbs because I think they scream hot rod, and am willing to put up with the issues like faster fouling plugs, less gas milage, etc. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish with your own application.

Neither.... go with an open plenum and maybe a spacer to add a bit more power......Your 60 ft. times will tell you what height spacer is correct. The crossrams were a farce, all show, no go....
Here's another one I stumbled over, sez it's power band is to 6500 but I would imagine with good heads and cam it would be a bit higher.... Just one more thing to confuse you!!!!!! It's called a Torklink. Don't remember who makes it, can find out if you're interestedYesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
