Wow! me too lol Wonder if the STR 14 inline is differrent then the crossram bottom.
as far as i can remember bottoms were the same but there were different damming provisions made for the 6 pack and crossram versions according to the direct connection race manual. id like to see a picture of the different str-14 bottoms. i still dont buy it. it wouldnt have been cost effective back in the day. i could see 1 bottom and 4 different tops.

I'm still trolling the internet SUPERSTOCKER for more info.His bottom is definitely different then my crossram bottom,just checking to see if the earlier versions were different then the updated (newer version).If not....then I'm going on the brain scattering hunt for a complete inline setup. Maybe I can do some modified demensions to my top plate and send them to Jerry. I'm bummed lol

No. STR 14, 15 and 12 tops are not the same.

They were basically a "Rat Roaster" which Edelbrock adapted to use on a wedge engine.
BG was, and still is, a wizard with those things. He modifed my Hemi Rat Roaster with a cross ram top and it worked very, very, well indeed. He also fabricated a bell crank and linkage that also worked real, real good. In fact, I adapted that linkage to work on my regular MP cross ram.
