Default Re: Intake Question

Crazy deal but I did the exact thing with my L-88...I drag raced it for 10 year with the Tarantula and when I swapped the mill out of my race car and put it in my street car a put a 163 on it.

For the life of me I don't remember if the plenum was chopped out. It has instant throttle response and when it runs good has put up an 11.80 with DOT biters. Funny thing is I'd really like the car to pick up a tenth or two so I'm gonna slam the Tarantula back on for the track. They say the air gap is even better so I've had my eye out for a used one. I have a 427 stinger hood so clearance is not an issue.
