Cross Rams and Tunnel Rams, Buddy Bar

Unless you have a six pack or super stock scoop, of course. But I'm curious how raising the plenum that would affect overall rpm tuning with that. Would it add so much volume that volume would have to be decreased elsewhere in the plenum to make up for any loss of low rpm torque or would it relegate it to a 4500 rpm and over power band?

Actually, the one I did was grossly under carbureted. I protested about running two 650’s but it was ignored because it was a “street” car.

I forget what it made for power but I do remember that the torque number was higher than it should have been, and the HP was lower than it should have been. It was under carb’d. It drove well and the customer was happy, but more car would have not lost much (if any) torque and picked the HP numbers up. I think it went 480ish HP and 515 on torque, so I was disappointed but like I said...it drove very well.
