Was you application on a blow through as well?

Yep, just as Tom said. Except I opted for the F1-C instead of the F1-R. Both are the same diameter, but the C model trades off a slight amount of peak flow for more flow down low, which should work better on my street car.

Instead of the single 4 barrel, Im modifying a tunnel ram base. It will get a flat top, a TBD spacer (~3"?) to get to the optimum plenum volume, and we are going to mount a big Accufab throttle body on the front of it. This gets me tons of plenum space, keeps the overall height much lower than it would have been, and gets me into a set of CNC worked CV-1 cylinder heads.

Intake is a work in progress. Expect to have it (the motor) wrapped up very soon now.
