Black Sheep thanks for the post. I too have a hurricane and will be following this thread. You car/project sounds much farther along than mine, so I am looking foward to your feedback on fitment, carb orientation, tuning, divided plenum? etc. Thanks, Wayne. |

I'm also looking at the 2bbl version of the Aussiespeed Hurrican intake manifold. Keep us posted on how your installation goes. One issue that may put me back is that in sizing up the width ( from the intake face that mounts to the head to the outside of the carb pad), is reported to be 460mm. I need to look closer but on this 83 Dodge truck that space is already occupied by the power brake booster / master cylinder. I believe I will be looking into what kind of a job it is to reposition the master brake cylinder. |

Looks nice black sheep...did you make any provisions for some support? I bought one as well (although there prices went way down after the fact....DOH!) I was worried about cracking without support & was wondering if you did anything. |

Stonethk, did you order through Aussie Speed or PP&R? Pentastar Parts still lists the Hurricane @ $465 Aussie. I know Ray was selling on E-bay, is that the price decrease you were talking about? |

OK, so who's going to dyno test this manifold against the Offy and Clifford? |

I would like to do some track testing... swap the Hyper-Pak for the Auzzy manifold to see if there is any difference. DD |

Doc, if Stonethk won't let you borrow his, I would be glad to loan you mine for a while! My build is a long way away and I would love to see what this thing will do! Let me know! |
