Wow, thanks for posting that. It helps when choosing and what to expect

[nivvy]

I imagine all the numbers would be a little higher each for a 440..... 

[Moparal]

Stroker, I always have a hard time trying to type your screen name. Is it ok to just do Stroker for me? My right hand was crushed in a mine accident so I just use two fingers with it. Please don't get upset when I cant get the upper and lower cases right

[nivvy]

No problem moparal ...... still looking for those MSD chips you were gonna send me.........

[MEK-Dangerfield]

Wow you were reading my mind.  I was going to mention that in this post but thought that you probably had that solved.  Now what size was you needing? I am home for turkey then back to Ca for a few weeks, I'd like to get it to you. I ship 3 members stuff out today.

I think it was a 6500 & 6600 ....

Thanks for the post.  I saw that issue and there is a lot more detail on the torque numbers and the best power in certain RPM's, incase anyone was interested.

I wonder why the Eddy performer was not tested ??

did they say what the hp numbers were with the factory intake? it looks like i am going to want the holly street dom or the M1, right?

[nivvy]

M1 you may have hood clearance issues depending on aircleaner.... cant go wrong with the holley street dominator!!!

[sleepychallenger]

i am finally picking up the rallye hood in Jan, so however much clearance i have from there???

[nivvy]

I am running a 440/500 so I have 13.25 inches to the top of my T/A hood....

Hers is how to do it...

take a tape measurer and set is on the vally pan rail and extend it up and keep closing your hood until it dont knock the tape measurer over then take another tap measures and measure the total length of the tape measurer used to get the hood clearance height...

I did it the way and got an exact measurement... so exact that my setup just fit doing it this way!

make sense

and yes my total height is 13.25 in the picture...

I have a RPM intake on my 440 and I had to run a dropped air cleaner to clear the hood.
