    Hello from SoCal

     



    Just thought I would introduce myself since I am new. I have a 34 ford pickup that I just finished. Im running a 383 bb mopar in it. The cab is chopped 5” and channeled 4” The frame is z’d 5” in the front and 12” in the rear. The next step of the project will include replacing panels and painting the body.
    Pics to be up soon.

    I considered running that manifold setup. A buddy of mine has a manifold like that and it would work on my car. Good old mopar parts.
    I am considering fabbing up my own 3x2 manifold. Think it would give it a better look.

    Welcome from me too and absolutely nice truck, and yes triples would suit that excellently.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    Had some of those 413 cross tunnel rams on a 440 once, they did look good but were a pain to keep tuned.
    And good luck finding them these days they are getting harder and harder to find almost impossible I should say.
