Edelbrock TR1Y tunnel ram

Thanks! That's a lot of good info. I'm building this thing in my head and slowly gathering parts. So far these are known factors.

-5.9 magnum longblock (pulled from junkyard, going to re ring and new bearings once I open it up)
-all necessary pieces to convert to la style front dress
-redrill heads for la intake. Quick valve job as needed, hopefully they're not cracked
-Edelbrock Tr1Y intake
-1 5/8" headers
-3" dual exhaust, glasspacks, turndowns ahead of axle
-904, planning on reverse manual valve body. Have access to 3000rpm converter for it if needed
-8 3/4" rear, planning on 4.10 with suregrip
-275/60 15 rear tire size

My current unknowns are cam, carbs, and ignition. Probably some other stuff.

Eventual upgrades would be

-Icon flat top pistons
-EQ 318b heads for use with LA intake

This whole build has to be as low buck as possible. Grown up responsibilities and 3 kids keeps play money to a minimum.

A Hyd. cam with a decent amount of duration will fit in very nicely as well with the wallet. Even a low [email protected] would work really well. (Though I'd go higher, but that's no secrect! LAMO!" ) Here is my on the quick suggestion;

Later on, up the rocker ratio to a 1.6. IF money allows. I get the whole Dad, house, etc... package deal. It lives here as well.

A pair of 600cfm Carter/Edelbrocks maybe a lot of cfm, but there cheap and easy to tune to what you'll have.
Pace has a ready to run MSD knock off. It's actually the same thing with a few parts of different materials inside. Johnny Pace told me there nearly identical. Mine works really well. I asked him about instructions. That's when he told me what I wrote above and to use there instructions because there the same inside.
