Default Re: period correct tunnel rams

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: pxtx</div><div class="ubbcode-body">With that criteria, I would say the Offy TP Tunnel Ram is a perfect fit.

In the 1980's my uncle put a TR on a street rod with a similar set-up. It has been the most street friendly dual quad car in the club and is still running strong to this day. You could dive it in traffic tomorrow, then blast off to Columbus without a hitch. Vac advance distributor with a special tune. The street rod is a 42 Ford pickup. It's not a race car, but has turned 14's at the drags.

My personal hang-up is having a TR equipped car only running 14's. </div></div>

Awesome! That's what we're going with then. We'll figure out the carb selection later, but I've been reading up your advice on SNS about using 2 600's. We want to have fun with this setup, and not have to deal with a finicky rpm operating range.
