i haven't been on here in quite some time, and thought i'd show what i've been working on.

i haven't had this car out since 1998... hopefully it will be out this summer.
the first pic is what it looked like when i drove it last

Very Nice , this will be interesting to follow.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

thanks! yes the nats in 98 was one of the last times i had it out. the car was really well recieved, got lots of awards and some coverage in magazines & catalogs etc. i got a hairbrain idea that i needed to redo the car...so, it sat while waiting for $$$$ bigger and better plans take a long time and can change due to budget or lack of it! in the mean time, i built my 69 plymouth, the candy wagon, and a 61 plymouth for my daughter because i set such high goals for this car, that it was easier to built a different car than finish this one the way that i thought it needed to be.

so here we are... focusing on this one project and lowering expectations to a more realistic level.

I love your concept. I have always wanted to see something "wild" done with a Crossram and you are doing it.. I can't wait to see more pics..



When you decide to quit, THAT is the moment when you would've succeeded..

So I'm thinking over the weekend about the comment of the turbo plumbing hiding the look of the long rams. And then I'm thinking you are trying to balance pre butterfly boost pressure, and the OEM balance tube would not be effective for that. Then I realize to a some what degree, you have the left bank exhaust turbo supercharging the right bank intake. Of course that ultimate effect is dependent on your intake X balance design.

So Is this a potential and/or significant issue?

What if the turbo outs were plumbed ea in one big 90 bend back to the other side throttle body, with slight overlapping ea other as they exit the turbos, and in that overlap area, have a less robust balance junction, since less balancing is needed?

Or should I just butt out.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Love the car. I still have a video clip of it going down Brice. I see you changed the license plate from the one you had on it when it was supercharged This is one of my all time favorite Mopars. You sir have awesome hotrodding skills.

What a coincidence, i'm also planning on bulding a car like that, only it's gonna be a convertible, with a hemi and it's gonna have 4 turbo's, 2 blower's, an nitrous, an TPI alcohol injection, I started building it last year, I've been collecting parts and so far i have the Chrome lug nutz for the front wheels.
Great build, awesome car, can't wait to see it in person.

I'm using indy's.
We made spacers that taper from max wedge ports(indy) to stock size ports (long rams) and they also made a bunch of clearance for the valve covers too

we've been driving the snot out of the car & have put a few thousand miles on this summer. been to a few events, and people have been freaking out!
the car has gotten a bunch of awards, been photographed for multiple magazines, and received a million compliments!
everywhere the car goes, it draws a crowd & I get to meet new people!
exactly what the car was built to do!

here's a link to a vid about the car.
