    My chassis for my vintage dragster is out being fabricated. so im working on my power plant. Looking at alcohol fuel injection vintage style what do you guys think of a tunnel ram intake with bug catcher fuel injection as compared to the old hilborn style. the engine is a 358 ci sbc producing about 550hp going to run the engine unblown. Currently running on a alky carb brodix intake set up. the car is a 125" early 60s style fuller type chassis. the car is a stick shift car 2nd 3rd

    What you are suggesting is a good setup. Good Vibrations has the set up, if you don't

    Oddball question. Vintage chassie and you want a vintage style fuel injection system, but are considering a late model (by vintage standards)"Bug on a tunnle ram"

    Stacks are vintage--- BTR's are not so vintage

    Stacks are vintage, tunnel rams really didn't gain popularity until the late 60s. If it were a two or three pot injection system on a blower it would fit in quite a bit better
