Reply to "New engine/low HP"

Art I know that you are asking Dan and I don't mean to butt in, but T.S. I ran the Shelby version of that manifold. The Blue Thunder is a copy and "improved".
I found it to a restrictive manifold and made me want my Edelbrock Torker back.
I never blamed the intake for being flat under 4200. I always felt those were the iron 4v head characteristics.
If you deport the torker (like the one I have for sale) you make the engine noticably more responsive from around 3000rpm and up instead of 4000 to 4200 and up.
The Torker is a race manifold that is streetable.
It needs "gears" to run right.
If your local town decides to bring back trollies and needs grooves cut for the tracks, they will hire you to do it if you run the Torker. (Bet ya' don't know no trollies huh?)
