Hey
I was wanting to tunnel ram my 302cleveland. Which is stock by the way.
If I was to use a tunnel ram with dual holley 390, what cam should I use. Or can I get away with running a tunnel ram on a stock engine?
Any help would be good thanks. Where is a good place to get a 2V tunnle ram as can only find 4V ones?
All I am going for is the look and to do the odd skid on some V8 runs plus a bit of a Lumpy idle.

tunnel ram stock 302? Are you really sure you want to do this? Money could be spent better elsewhere on the motor rather than having the cop magnet hanging out the bonnet. What state are you in? It's your choice but might be an idea to sit and think t

G'day,if you want the look then with abit of mucking about you should be able too get the tunnel ram to work.It's not the long runners that are going to be the problem,it's the fact that most rams are set up for duel 4 barrels.Long runners can be good for

Thanks guys.
This has opened my ideas on what carb to get now. Just worried on giveing her to much fuel with the bigger carbs.
I will have a look at that cam sounds the part. Should I go roller rockers? Or is it not worth the hassle?
Who makes a good 2

Hey.
I asked bout those demon carbs they said $1600.
Not worth it, I will save money and go for a holley or something.
Plus that tunnel ram was a 4V which I only found out. They dont do 2V.
