for looks the duel quads are great- for performance a good six pak will outrun them. best of all an early tarantula manifold for single 4 bbl with a 5/8" spacer.
nicely done sir.
sounds like a fun ride- wish I had kept my factory plymouth SS car I bought in '63.
If that's true, why did all NHRA ProStock cars use a 2X4 combination before going to EFI?
the pro stocks use manual trans (launch RPM) Holley 1050,1150 and 1250 dominator carbs, you cannot compare a pro stock car to a street car. PS I am the one who designated the rules for pro stock in 1981 , the weight- 2350 lbs car and driver, 500 cid,2 x 4 bbls, gasoline
That's a great time in the 1/4 mile! Were you running the stock 906 heads? And what was the duration on the 505 cam? Haven't heard of that one. Or did you mean to say 509 cam? What kind of rocker arm set up? I suppose you were running headers too.
the .505 is the purples shaft cam from Chrysler- been a long time ,may be the .509. yes-I ruined a gorgeous '69 Cuda fastback by putting fender well headers on it. when totally stock from the factory it ran 105MPH @ 14.00's, the engine long block never out of the car- the stock heads were on it. I also blew it up ,put a 383 in it and sold it for $700.00, this was 1971 ,I paid $1600.00 for it at a dealer with 3000 miles on it.
boils down to what do you like what do you have put it on and run it, they are all cool. a friend in the 70's had a stock body '68 Charger with a 440 single 4 bbl on a tarantula (lot of internal engine work) that ran 1030.s over 130 in the quarter, much respect for the tarantula manifold.
