Siamesed Runners v. Big Bore Runners

What is the difference between siamesed and big bore runners? Is it where the power is at in the rpm curve? Is one better to start with than the other (as in before having and port work done)? I'm still new to all this, so any info would be good.

Mike

Re: Siamesed Runners v. Big Bore Runners

I am running SLPs that were siamesed by me. Definately work VERY WELL for me on my 305.

Re: Siamesed Runners v. Big Bore Runners

Check out the sticky post entitled "Quest for a better flowing TPI" at the top of the TPI forum. We dynoed my car with fully-siamesed SLP runners and with TPIS/AS&M large tube runners. The SLP runners made more horsepower at higher RPM, while the large tube runners made more torque. Its your choice which you want.
