Glad to see both of you guys are still around and still dealing with Poncho stuff! Although I didn't discover them until the late 80's, you're books were the technical inspiration for the engine that I use in the world famous Yanque Tanque (the worlds fasted 1970 roadracing Trans Am). I still run your tri-y headers to this day! (any chance you'll build them again one day?)
Thanks so much for sharing all your information with the Pontiac world. It is greatly appreciated and used daily by so many of us. BTW I second the nomination for VP's! www.yanquetanque.com

Mike Here, as I scour my computer for the Bath Tub Photos, keep in mind that the Photos already presented so far contain the "Bath Tub" look, which is the Tunnel Ram less the top Plate that Holds the Carbs.
These Pictures of Motors were too Good to pass up so I Inserted them Instead of nothing. Mike out. |

Mike s Reply: There are people on the PY Forum Manufacturing Dual Quad. As we speak, I wonder how many were built so far, chine in with the answer and how you're doing with that project? I don't think they are coping with the Ram Air Box, however if it was me, I would use today's version and put it in a Box like H-O did and install it under the Dual Quads. I would use those 4" spacer Phenolics with 4 tapered cones inside to act as the Ventures in the modern version, that is if I were to create one. For now, I am happy with my Tri-Powers.

I want to give John Wallace some credit because some of the Photos came off his site and not all are signed in his Hand. This concludes Mikes contribution to this PY Forum about H-O for now. If anyone has Information to Insert here get ahold of me and I will download your Info to a file on my computer and input it here. I am going to pick another H-O Document to fix now, by for now.

Nice to see these photos. There should be another tunnel ram around. Jim Miller in Monroeville Pa. area built one around a small block Chevy tunnel ram. The manifold went on a 303. I was there when he was cutting and fitting. This was before 1974. The engine first went into a 61 Catalina, then a 1970 Formula. I never saw the car run. Then the parts were sold off. I do not have pictures. I think Jim had some kind of plans maybe he got when buying the 303 parts from Pontiac engineers.

I said in an earlier Post here, that I would put two of these Parts in a Box over the Tunnel Ram flat plate with Dual Carbs on top, if I get tired of the Tri-Powers:
