I'm going to do a bigger version of that scoop you haveIm thinking about fiberglass good with hole in it and stacks sticking out…

I was worried that it will look out of proportion with bigger one. I will try that glass hood with tall stacks. Don’t know what hood to buy and doing some research. Shipping to Europe will be crazy but what can I do…I'm going to do a bigger version of that scoop you have
Take a look at the 71 pro stock cars, it's huge and looks bad ***I was worried that it will look out of proportion with bigger one. I will try that glass hood with tall stacks. Don’t know what hood to buy and doing some research. Shipping to Europe will be crazy but what can I do…
Yes this one seemed big also but I see your point.Take a look at the 71 pro stock cars, it's huge and looks bad ***
I like it. Looks familiar. But mine has 2 kits with 500+ each capability.This is new tunnel ram combo I just finished up. It’s a 605ci 11.5:1 pump gas hemi with 500 shot.
The BG carbs are just for show. These are 3 circuit carbs that will not do in street conditions as they are.
I will be ordering a pair of 2 circuit dominators for this early next year. This is going into 67 Coronet so I’m not putting much info on it here. This should be fun ;-)

Looks similar to mine that I ported.This is Indy tunnel ram without cover after initial cleaning. I was thinking about spacer under top cover but this is for future experiments. No room for anything in current setup.
I was asking about filling that void based on this plenum design.

Coronet with that 605 ran 8.00 1/4 with full interior. Now plan is to make it more of a street strip situation without loosing the balls on it. I am tempted to do some more work on that intake, but first need to get the carbs and see where I am.I like it. Looks familiar. But mine has 2 kits with 500+ each capability.

The one I posted earlier is wedge type, but this is exactly what is on the 605.
Thing is that for people in Europe this hobby is way more expensive due to shipping and taxes. Spending few thousand $ for stuff that doesn’t really do much and is practically impossible to sell on local market needs to be justified at least for people on budget like me.I always get a kick out of these should I shouldn’t I posts, hell you’re not talking about screwing your wife’s sister. It’s just parts and you’re not dead yet. That’s a nice looking tunnel ram that needs a pair of TQs on it! lol

Everything we do with our cars is expensive now days, we have $1,000 carburetors, intake manifolds, headers etc… If you need to justify the cost of building your car it can’t happen. If you justify it by building it the way you want you will be much more successful and satisfied with your results. Me personally I have found that if I compromise I’m never happy with it…Thing is that for people in Europe this hobby is way more expensive due to shipping and taxes.

Also threads like this help others, I have to admit that I wanted this a lot from the very beginning but also got a great insight from more experienced and avoided mistakes or stupid expenses along the way.
Nice, mine is street/strip also. I drive it all over. Neighbors don't like it that much though.Coronet with that 605 ran 8.00 1/4 with full interior.

Then they should ashamed of themselves as “Motor City Residents!”Neighbors don't like it that much though.

I don’t compromise much, I can’t afford stuff that fails. That said imagine for a second how would you feel paying 50% more than you see on summit website just because you are far away for every single thing.Everything we do with our cars is expensive now days, we have $1,000 carburetors, intake manifolds, headers etc… If you need to justify the cost of building your car it can’t happen.

This was a lot of work, but the work paid off as this standard port tunnel ram only fell off from peak 5800 to 6800, 60 HP.
Prh told me he tested this same manifold untouched and it was over 120 HP.
It's ugly on the outside but inside it's beautiful.
I love burr finish, my 1st burr finish too.
