Default Re: BBC Tarantula manifold vs weiand tunnel ram ?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Resurrected69ss</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Hey guys, I'm building a mostly period correct 69 camaro. I'm going to be running a 427 .60 over (439) 12:5:1 big block with heavily ported 990 heads and a bullet cam. I have a mint edelbrock tm2r tarantula manifold and also have a weiand pro ram, I'm in love with both the super stock and pro stock theme but what will <span style="font-weight: bold">make more power ultimately</span>? Tunnel ram with 660's or that tarantula with a good carb? Thanks guys!

Thanks,
Vinnie

ok, so IF MORE POWER is what your after, use the Pro Ram. With these old intakes, the TR starts really coming on about 4500 RPM and will ALWAYS make more power by about 6000 RPM and keep making more. IF you DO NOT have carbs, get with a good carb guy and let them lead you in the direction you need to be for the best of both worlds.

&quot;jmarkaudio&quot; over on YB.com would be a good one to talk too, but any good brand name can do it, we personally use Dale Cubic at CFM. But go TR and don't look back.

I was even looking at these for the street:
