I have a STR-14-4 Manifold wanting trade/buy or even make a top for a crossram 2 4 BBL. I was wondering are the bottoms the same for all the different tops? Has anyone ever made a top?
Thanks Brian
Great question, I have one with a single 4 top and have wanted a 6pack and 2x4 top but didn't know if they were the same bottoms.

Are you looking to make the Crossram version or the inline version?Check with Damon at Diamonback Engines he won't give up any secrets lol but he will help you out.Really good guy to work with and knows his stuff when it comes to STR's. http://www.diamondbackengines.com/ http://www.diamondbackengines.com/forums/index.php#2
Or I can send you demensions on the crossram top plate,but I gotta tell ya lol,the crossrams a real hair ripper to make.
As SUPERSTOCKER stated the linkage is a real PITA,But I have a set up for it (Carb/Linkage East & West set up).
Let me know.

the bottoms are not all the same, i have str's that were built for just cross ram tops and str's that were built for single 4bbl and inline two four bbl, i do not know if this was a design change or if it was for different carb locations.

all str-14 bottoms are the same, the tops are all interchangeable, going by direct connection part # inside of the bottom cast into it

I've seen different variations of the bottoms also,small low ribs in the bottom ports where as some didn't.Mines the STR 14 crossram without the chrys stamp/no ribs and theres no support ribs on the top plate like I've seen on some.Not sure if its due to earlier Eddy STR chrysler gen vs the updated STR Eddy or top specific.
Anyone? 
thats true about the insides of the bottoms as some had the part # and some didn't but all the tops are interchangeable. the contours for the lids are the same.

I'll make one offs, there is no minimum as it will be filler work for my shop, so i can run them on an as needed basis, plus i will add it to my sales items, for the future in case anyone else needs one.
Thanks jerry,
Do I send this info through your website?or is there an e-mail address I can send the info?
(dimensions and pics)

That intake will work well with some epoxy mods to the floor. Plus the STR-15 is the only low deck cross ram available. Damon has been 9.60's with one on a low deck 493. It would be well worth making some lids for them. They would fit both intakes(str-14 and str-15) pretty sure there is a small block version (str-13?) but doubt the tops would interchange...

those intakes are absolute slugs. i ran one back in the mid 90's with every direct connection trick and was slow. best i could get out of it was a 11.08
its got a great look for nss but thats about it.
