I am good at spending too much money putting together mediocre junk.

Disclaimer I don't promise to complete this. I fully reserve the right to abandon this project again

What I've amassed do far...

Custom fabbed tunnel ram top on top of a weiand hi ram. I picked that intake solely because it looks freaking cool AF. Modified to accept injectors, and using the fuel rail from on of Edelbrocks intakes.

I have a partially built MS2 ECM. I'll be hopefully completing this.

Just purchased a hyperfuel drop in EFI tank. 340 lph pump. Pretty big flow.

Plenty of other details I'll add as I go. Let's hope I get this going this time around!
 
Just to get her kicked off. I designed this conversion intake awhile back. Drew all up in solidworks and had the box plenum fabricated and the lower machined and welded to accomodate the injector bungs.

Here it is IRL:

Now, this was designed to fit under the flat hood of a 67 belvedere. I'm hoping it fits under my hood scooped dart alright. Fingers crossed.
 
You picked probably the best Pcar tunnel ram out there. There is still the Offenhauser TR that is being made, but it’s hard to get. It’s a really nice piece but it’s a bit more street friendly. Then there is the Edelbrock TR5 base which you can find used, but those clowns aren’t going to make them any more.

I’ll follow this thread. I find it interesting.
 
I just ripped an entire EFI system off a motor. Been trying to get the holley 950 commander system working/dialed in for far to long. Even sent it in to holley for the last updates and paid the extra to go to the wide band. **** is going on the shelf maybe to never be seen again. I hope you have much better luck than I. I'll be interested to hear the outcome.
 
I was thinking about powder coating the manifold. Any opinions?

Always thought something like this would be cool. Wanted to try it but never had the funds to even start. Nice job!
 
Minor update. I've been continuing with the assembly of the megasquirt MSII controller. Got a decent soldering station off Amazon for sub $50, and literally picked up the assembly of the board where I left off over 10 years ago!

Reminds me of the guy who chopped up a magnum keg manifold and converted it to a blower manifold...

In other words, this is fricking cool!
 
I sure hope you will keep this updated. I too "am in the middle" of a Measquirt II assembly.
