340 tunnel ram

Running a tunnel ram on the street for anything other than looks is a waste of time.


If you want to run one for power.... You will be better off with a conventional single 4 bbl set up.

I'll disagree on this one too. I don't think its a waste of time if it works well. I just put on on my 440 in my 66 Coronet. It'll go sideways with a light stab at the pedal, just using the primaries. Low speed operation is great and has more of a mid to upper train like torque curve. It starts better because the carbs are cooler now. With the electric choke it starts flawlessly. I drove it all weekend in town, freeway whatever. Its a 9.4 to 1 440, self ported stock valve size heads, 228-232@050 524-540 Hughes cam. Stock 1970 383 converter and 3.23's. I know lower gearing would help with the 60ft times. I'm going to the strip next Wednesday to test it out if I get my hood on by then.
