Will AS&M siamesed runners do anything for my setup?

I currently have AS&M large tube runners and have been thinking on how the Siamesed runners will affect my powerband.

Will it increase power over what it is with the LTR's? Will the torque curve flatten out a bit more? I am trying to get more HP and flatten the curves to produce a powerband as flat as possible. I am shooting for 12's with the current combo.


See my mod list and dyno chart here: www.cardomain.com/id/formul8

Any input is appreciated!

Transmission: The kind that shifts....
I don't think they flow that much more over the large tube runners. I have the AS&M Siamesed runners packed in a box waiting on more speed parts to accumulate. I think the peak TQ and HP rpms will move up like 300rpm or something small like that.

So far i have:
AS&M Siamesed runners
LPE 74211 camshaft 211/219 duration @ .050 with .530/.560 lift on 1.6 rockers.

Planning on buying the following for my setup....
TPIS Big Mouth base
Pro Topline 180cc Iron Lightning heads with 2.02/1.6 valves, and springs good for .600" lift. 64cc chambers, straight plug.
SLP 1 3/4" shorties + y-pipe.

Axle/Gears: 3.27, just works
usually your peak torque moves up around 500 rpm or so, and your peak horsepower move up to 5k to 5200 r's, and with 10-20 more horsepower, depending on what other mods you may have, 10 is more likely though. For the price of the runners though, a stealthram intake is a much better piece worth swapping over to, if your in pursuit of lower e.t's although the tpi's work great for the 1/8th mile and stop light to stop light use. My car would run, 2.00 60 ft times, with just a flowmaster cat back, stock 3.27 9 bolt, and pep boys futura 255's, my buddy with a 97 formula with a cold air intake, 3.73's and a flomaster muffler on his Lt1 cuts the same 60 ft time, without slipping, I was slipping.
