Re: cross ram intakes

Here is a stock 290 horse car....results were read from a dyno according to this page here and the single 4bbl version got 400 hp. Add in the crossram, cam and headers and you can easily see it could pull 458 on the dyno.

Don't dyno numbers mean rear wheel HP?

I am not upset in the least. I got confused in my old age about the numbers, it happens. That said all the results I have ever read from the Crossram numbers were from dynos. If you can find anything that says otherwise on the subject, I will stand corrected twice.

PS....just dawned on me....what would 458hp at the rear wheels be at the crank? Maybe I had the location of the number wrong. Food for thought.

Back to the original subject, they were a bear to tune and only good at very high RPMs...not good for the street by any means.
