Dennis, I am going to call you captain negativity!  Yes I know. Yes I will likely run it just for the wow factor on the engine that goes in the car for this year. I won't be all that fast but it might as well look cool. Pretty sure that next year at this time I will be installing another big bore motor and Jeffrey head, so the Clifford intake and long tube headers will go back on. We shall see. Rick |

But you already know that, don't you.  I can Attest to that. Anything below 65* on a cold engine is dance on the throttle city.. yay for a stick car. If it were on a dry MPEFI System it would be more than ideal. Greg |

Both the original mini starter and the new "super mini" weighed 7 lbs. That should be pretty close because the UPS label on the box the starter came in said it weighed 7.9 lbs. So there is not really a weight savings, only a space savings. Rick |

It took me more time than I care to admit to figure out how to NOT Cut a hold in my hood and fit the hyperpak. What I did was opened up the the plenum area and inserted a phenolic spacer that I machined down. I used a 1/2 inch spacer from jegs and cut it down to about an 1/8 inch thick. The center 4 hole section sets down into the manifold 3/8 of an inch. That is about the thickness of the mounting are of the manifold. I drilled and tapped the manifold to accept the carb studs directly. I then used a low profile plenum from spectre performance that flows 600 CFM with a 4 inch tube opening. I did have to cut one rib, but if done right it looks good. A four door car street vehicle looks silly with a hole in the hood. I will try to post some picture soon. |
