I bought a set of 4.10 gears from my friend who also has a tunnel ram with dual 650dp Demon carbs with the linkage, fuel lines, etc. that he wants to trade me (flat trade) for my single RD Demon jr and aluminum intake off my chevelle. if I trade him the dual plane for the tunnel ram would that throw my combo way out of whack? those things run 3K rpm+ right?

what kind of tunnel ram??? I saw a test in a magazine {ok, ok i know it was a magazine} But the tunnel ram kicked ass down low as well as up top. But i think it was a pretty aggressive combo.

It's a Wieand, I noticed in the new summitt catalog that the same intake runs about 2500-10,000. I don't need it to run that high nut I've been told that my car really "doesn't" make power under 2500 anyway. what else should I consider?

You don't need a tunnel ram..just lose those 2.73's
Rest of your combo sounds good graemlins/thumbsup.gif
