Scott,
Are you running a Weiand Tunnel ram too? RIC has me thinking now! Gain 30-40hp & Tq just by switching intakes! Jim...

Say Why (am I using a cross ram) And, get a tunnel ram.

 

Lol!
Yes Jim,I'm running the Weiand p/n 1988 tunnel ram on the new "little bruiser" 289 I'm putting together.I couldn't find anybody willing to let go of their C6 2x4 intake,so I said "screw it",and bought a tunnel ram.

They usually come along on Craig's list or Kijiji for a decent price,and they make really good power with a couple of tuning tricks on the carbs.

With your new flywheel and a tunnel ram,you'll see how good your valve springs are in a hurry I bet!

And contrary to urban legends,a tunnel ram doesn't have to be an 8000rpm+ ONLY part.....they actually make a ton of torque through the midrange on a well tuned motor with a well thought-out combination of cam/heads/compression/carbs etc.

As and added bonus,they look BADASS.

RIC, Scott & Dogpatch, thanks for your input!!! I sometimes worry I'll ask a stupid question & come off looking like an idiot! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge! Jim...

Asking questions, is for seeking knowledge.., never asking a question, might be stupid. Stupid, or stubborn is being shown the best way, and not following it.

 

I HAVE A BUDDY THAT HAS A SMALL BLOCK FORD TUNNEL RAM THAT HAS NEVER BEEN USED AND COULD PROBABLY BE BOUGHT REASONABLE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PM ME AND I WILL GIVE YOU HIS INFO.

 

Hey Border Bandit Bros., sorry for hijacking your build thread guys, but were standing around here in your garage waiting for some more wrenching action, while you sit under a banky with the Mrs. & watch Pretty Woman (Barney re-runs for Beebee). We're gett'n bored & we already drank all your beer, so we're trying to entertain ourselves.., and try to bring another cross ram user over from the dark side.

 

And you must be watching reruns of Married with "Yesterday's Children" I think ur mind is fogged from all that California pollution?? Lol

 

Here ya go Ric...four into ones... I hope to have both sides all tacked together by the end of the weekend.

 

Tubular Dude! Look'n good!

 

Ya, the pollution here is terrible! Here is one of those gross polluters in action. Tomorrows Step Child ask me if she gets to back to Byron for summer vacation, and stomp the raisins outta the "Purple Peter Eater"?

 

Purple peter eater is a perfect name...it's better than the raped grape too.

lil deuce sedan !

 

good vibrations !

 

Its getting so, that you have to be very causcious when picking out a car name, so no one can jack it up. I hope Beebee gets his main/rod bearing issue fixed.., otherwise.., his Chebbie twice is gonna be.., Plum Lazy!

 

Plum Lazy is good too...keep them coming.

 

Wow......... I'll remember that

 

Have to tune up the Childs oil ring tension a taste, or we'll be Plum Hazy!

 

I been saving it special for ya.., its all in the timing & delivery in this game. Seemed like you was bust'n for an early Christmas gift. So, Bob's you uncle!

 

You notice how Kips afraid to name his...... He's afraid of a dodge or Chrysler tag to be put on him, that's why he sold White Noise, cause after he put the stripes on the roof he became Mr. Mopar...... I would say we could call him Mr. shifter but we know the truth on that one!!!! Lol.

 

I was planning on naming it "Plan B" but after Joey's girl said it was a birth control pill...I haven't been able to get that outa my head.

 

What transmissions are you guys planning to run?

 

There is a Jerico, two Tremec TKO's a Muncie and another guy who doesn't have a trans yet.

 

The Schizo
Schizophrenic Vic

 

Not a lot of progress you can see but I did get the front axle drilled tonight and got the motor sitting I think where it will end up getting mounted. Purple Peter eater fits Art perfect gonna have to get some stickers made up for him. And Rick no problem high jacking our thread it keeps it to the top but I don't know who's beer you guys been drinking but they are gonna be pissed when they find out since none of the Bandits drink

 

Thats the wrong intake manifold!
