Tunnel Ram on Street?

FWIW... the only car to ever beat me in the old days in street racing in Chambersburg PA was a tunnel rammed '56 Chevy with a nice 327..... he had a fight on his hands but had the top end in the end. The 440's and all else never could keep ahead of my 351C after I hit 2nd. Man, that was fun LOL... looking back I can't believe we weren't all put in prison!

The .050" duration on that 351C cam was 190/200....on a 114 LSA... really... I am looking at the cam card now. Torker Intake, just a 600 cfm Holley VS, 1-7/8" headers w/ 18" collectors, 10.3 SCR, 8.3 DCR, quench, and the good breathing of the 351C heads. Maybe that shows what is being illustrated.... set up the whole package to make things breathe and then set the cam to maintain your torque band wide.

Bet I coulda beat that tunnel-rammed Chevy with a bigger carb... dang. But I also bet I would be hard-pressed against the improved parts you can get so easily today.
