Re: Chopped HSR to fit under a C4 Vette hood
If you want t ouse 1206 Felpros, buy a new one, if not then get a used one
www.stealthram.com
----------
The Super ram and Stealth were very very close to the same, I could not believe it.
The Miniram was a real pain, could not tune out the richness with 30# injectors, then went to SVO 24# injectors and it was better but not perfect.
M goal is to get a hi-rise hood and then add 2" to the top of the HSR intake thus lenghtening the runenrs to almost extactly half way between a SR and a Minram.

LD85,
Did you ever think of going to a solid roller cam? The miniram setup would have enjoyed that. I'm contemplating such a setup.

Yes, but I decided to stick with Hyd-Roller, my buddy has a miniram with a similar Sold Roller grind cam and he traps at 120MPH @ 12.03
I currently trap at 116mph with a slipping clutch, so we'll see

Re: Chopped HSR to fit under a C4 Vette hood
yea you would think that holley would of just modified the base to so the intake would the same height as a factory TPI, would of made so many things so much easier. I wanted to run a strut tower bar but i dont think thats gonna happen if i want a HSR. :-(

Re: Chopped HSR to fit under a C4 Vette hood
I have 3 c4 vettes. ..people keep giving them away so I keep buying them...keeping the 90 black tag zf6 fx3 car and building it. Already picked up a HSR unused still in box for $2k. Planning a stout 383. Your mod is spectacular and I will absolutely be copying it.
Any other tuning or other info you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Well done sir.

Re: Chopped HSR to fit under a C4 Vette hood
Bringing this back from the dead in hopes that LD85 is still around. I'm currently looking for a different solution to fitting the HSR under a stock Firebird hood without cutting the bracing out. Since the photos that LD85 posted are no longer available I was hoping that someone either saved these photos or LD85 saw this a could post these photos again.
