Sizzler,
You can see the manifold/carb setup by clicking on:

The manifold is a 2X4 high-rise tunnel port setup. Carburetors are two square-bore 780 CFM 3310 Holleys with vacuum secondaries. Engine idles and runs through all ranges smoothly, with smooth application of power as the secondaries open. With 570 HP, this improves driveability, especially when accelerating out of a corner. Thre's a lot less tendency to suddenly see where you've been with gradual opening of the secondaries. One down side: Mileage is not the greatest at about 9 mpg when soft peddaling it.
Thanks. I believe what you have is a Tunnel Wedge (for Tunnel Port heads), not a Tunnel Ram (confusing). I'm working on a Tunnel Ram and was looking for some info on those, Dove or others. A little worried about drivability. Thanks again.
