With all the hand work involved, at what point would a sheetmetal intake be a better option? Or is it for a class that doesnt allow one? Or is it still cost effective to modify a casting in this case?
Interesting question. Or the big cast tunnel rams I have seen available on RJ

Interesting question. Or the big cast tunnel rams I have seen available on RJ Can make close to power of SM intake and with in the same price range. And what's cooler 1000HP with single cast intake or 1040 with SM and 2 carbs Plus extra carb is some real coin. And I am just a sucker for cast intake engine lol.

I am a BIG admirer of some of these small block builds you guys are now racing. The 60 foot times of most of these builds are turning out some KILLER 60 times and running great 1/8 mile times but seem to fall short on 1/4 mile times. Have you ever tried a tunnelram set-up to see if she would keep pulling all the way down the track. Just curious.
1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27

Have you ever tried a tunnelram set-up to see if she would keep pulling all the way down the track. Just curious. My engine is only 780-800 HP in car right now. Been 150mph and 8.83 in 1/4 at 2940lbs I think I am getting about all she got. New motor makes 909 so that should pick it up some.

Do you have any idea how much horsepower Brians old small block was putting out? I know it was killer in the 1/8 too. I assume most of you guys are running 3 speed transmissions. My Duster is a pig (1.33-1.34) in the 60 foot with the powerglide.
