just a little sidebar on the mag tunnel ram.
Butch Leal just about burned down Ron Butlers race car shop in the early 70's. Butler let Butch use his milling / grinding area to modify (Butch removed 1" off the top of the base / open and blend the plenum, etc) his magnesium tunnel ram, after several hours of milling / grinding, he walked over to talk to Ron and the pile of mag flakes / dust ignited. One of Butlers shop guys grabbed an extinguisher only to make a much larger fire. Butler had buckets of water nearby and doused it out with every bucket they had.
The one on the Hemi I posted in the California Flash is magnesium and I have a (pictured) modified magnesium spare just as a "keeper". To keep it company is a new aluminum Hemi tunnel ram with 2 plenums. I guess I like Hemi tunnel rams.
