Who made your plenum?

The plenum was made by Grumpy, it was modified in height as to not interfer with the manifold height... in measurements theres about 1" clearance between plenum and hood underside...

Vinnie,
after you do the install, make sure you read the plugs every so often.

It all fits like that

When a Holley throttle body is used with an unmodified plenum, space
gets a little tight where the linkage and the driver's fuel rail converge.

LD85 & vinnies87, is it like this with your modified plenums? If so, do
different fittings and/or modifications to shorten the front end of the
fuel rail improve matters?

I havent used any type of Ram setup yet but i'm really interested in the Miniram from TPIS. Its expensive but looks totally awesome. There was another thread where a member made one from sheet metal and it looked good.
