Hi, I'm running a SR base with a tunnel ram top on my '87. I don't have any flow or dyno numbers. But I know what it does on the dragstrip. It's a 385sbc with AFR 210 raceready heads and a sloid roller cam. 252 int 262 ext @.050 .627 int .631 ext lift. It will run 10.50's at 127mph at 102' temp and 5300' DA. The car weighs 2875 with me in it. Based on those figures the motor makes around 600hp. It pulles hard thru 7000 rpm. This combo works well for me and I'm happy with the results.

I like your set-up, you've really got me thinking (which I generally try to avoid, don't want to hurt myself).
Do you remeber off the top of your head what CFM you throttle boy is rated at?
I would imagine with a center top feed throttle body like this would cure the distrubution problems?.
What type of air filter set-up are you running, and with it on how tall is your set up (what height cowl hood are you having to run)?
Is that 10.50 @ 127mph at 5300ft @ 102 deg corrected or is that what it truly ran? If that's what it really ran I'd love to see what it'd run here (about 700ft) on a 70 deg day, I'd bet that would translate into more than 600hp.

Thanks for your input Doug, hope this isn't to many questions.

Thanks to all for their replys


Ok, I'm back from the track.
1) Yes the center feed tunnelram did correct the fuel distrubution problem. The front and back plugs look the same.
2)The throttlebody is a 1000cfm Holley unit but I've seen flow numbers on this TB with good heads and it flows close to 1200cfm's.
3)No airfilter, I like living on the edge.
4)With a 3" cowl hood it onlt has 1.5" of clearance. Could explain the no aircleaner.
5)Those numbers are what I ran. I'd love to see a DA of less then 1000'. I can only dream.

Glad I could help.

Doug.
