Drag pac intakes
 

Ok, on drag pac intakes,don't the bolts go straight down from the top like a ford intake. They DO not go in on a angle like a chevy. and don't tell me the holes are not welded up either.there were a few at the Baby Gators like this and there was 1 correct one for sure and Tech was informed and nothing was done.

standard nhra, bet they diddnt even go look at them.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Make a separate lane for Stock-S/S cars during tech and things like this can be found.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Jason, while in theory that might sound reasonable, the question would
be who would be in those lanes looking at the cars, and has NHRA
invested in the S/SS education that would be needed to know what
to look for? J.R.

It may be a "superseded" part # for the intake and heads...lol. gsa612

V10 ?

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Brian,
What class and engine was in the car? On the original Drag Pac motors the bolts did come in from the top. I know the second version of the 426 and the supercharged motors are a different animal. I didn't look close enough at the newer motors to remember how they mounted but the later N/A intake is different than the earlier ones.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

In each division there are techmen who are more knowledgeable about Stk/SS than the ones who look at S/Gas. Separate the Stk/SS cars from the others and let those techmen work their lanes. At least it would be better than what is happening in tech now.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Some of the early Drag Pak cars were also available with the 360 A engine instead of the Gen 3 hemi. You may have looked at one of them. That would explain the angle on the bolts.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

End the bs and say who owns the car. Probably a 360. All the gen III hemi cars have vertical bolts and flat surfaces on the head and intake surfaces.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

I believe you can protest something like that if you are a car owner or racer. A couple bucks to prove your point.

NO PROTESTS in Div.7 or teardowns Ever!

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Mr. Jeff,
As usual thank you for your insight and information.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Mr Jeff is correct and the 318 / 360 Magnum also has vertical intake bolts

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Only the 360's Jeff,

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

The particular car you are talking about (we spoke about at Gville) Brian, IS a 360 car. So it would have angled bolts. Pretty sure it's a 2010 DP. Jim

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Don't think so Jim it is a 360 DP motor in it, manifold bolts down like a FORD.

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

X2 - Drag Pak 360 were based on the Magnum style 360, but they had limited intake options. I believe Mopar Performance and/or Edelbrock had versions of a Magnum style head that were drilled for the standard LA intakes to expand intake options. (Not necessarily NHRA legal.)

Re: Drag pac intakes
 

Agree, I can't see any advantage of changing the original way it is done, in fact my personal feeling, the flat is hands down the best.
