Agreed! Obviously I Love Aftermarket LS3 Heads with LLSR &
Appropriate Intake.

Guy here in Nor Cal just had a ~440" make 670 RWHP & ~600
Lb' with MMS LS7 Heads, MMS MSD, 12.5:1 Comp not sure if
Solid roller in C6 Z Track Car!

The FAST Composite Tunnel Ram with LLSR Would be
Insane! 700 RWHP & 600+ Lb'!!!

The fast tunnel ram looks awesome but what’s it going to fit in lol

You can use a Holley high ram on ls3 heads to
Make huge HP.

There was that guy on yellowbullet who made 790 hp with a Stock CI ls3 and ported Stock ls3 heads. I think around 12.5:1 compression as well

[QUOTE=big hammer;19855832]The fast tunnel ram looks awesome but what’s it going to fit in lol

I believe the OP wants to fit in a Fox Body and while Im not positive it will
fit, definitely worth measuring to see, similar height to Holley Hi Ram with the
added benefits of Composite Material & 3 different runner lengths.
The Fox body has a lot more room under the hood then a F Body or Vette.
Plenty of Hoods available to fit the Fox as well.
