Re: period correct tunnel rams
I talked to Joe over on speedtalk and at the time he raced the chevelle it had an unreal for the day 800" lift camshaft so maybe the added timing at lower engine speeds helped it idle better? All I know is 9:50 ets in 1975 was pretty serious! He musta known sumpthin?

Re: period correct tunnel rams
I can't say for sure why his tune had that much timing down low, but he may have had the same issue as my 540. Fuel lighting in the pipes required way more timing down low.
