Re: Crossbred, 454 into an '85 Ram

Bought a little eye candy for the 454. Big props to Summit for price matching, as i save about $45 by doing a little internet shopping and having them match it---it was worth the 20 minutes it took to do the transaction. Plus i had a $25 coupon from them to use too and the intake comes with a $25 coupon on next order. Add to that no intrest payments for a year, well, i just had to pull the trigger. (the tub job on the above mentioned Charger will easily cover this before the end of the summer)

So i bought a C-66 Eddy intake and two 500 cfm Eddy thunder series carbs, and progressive linkage. I have come so close a few times before to running multi carbs and ended up selling the setups before use. But i have tuned/played with them on other peoples cars so i am not unfamiliar with them. This setup usually suggests 600 cfm carbs, i went smaller to be more street friendly on my mild build. So without any further interuptions, a pic.
