I knew that the tunnel ram is hurting me but it is a part of the car. Look at the pictures below and you will see what I mean. I had this same intake set up on my 55 chevy in high school with less motor and there was very little bog out of it but it was on street tires and nothing sticky but man it sure would run strong. The Nova runs strong as crap after about 2500-3000 and pulls like a bear. I know this is a complicated thing to try to have but I am gonna try I know the heads are 76 cc combustion chambers by looking up the casting numbers so I was thinking compression increase would help alot. I am not sure exactly what the compression is now but with the 76 cc heads and the flat tops I am guessing somewhere around 9:1 maybe.
I really appreciate the assistance, Scott
