Unanswered: SSD mounted on end of '75 EFI manifold?
a SSD to the '75 manifold where the throttle body was? Did it work very well? Would there be a ram effect or just alot of turbulance due to the 90 deg into the runners? I know many have been converted with new manifolds to carbs using the kits, but I'm wondering how well retaining the EFI manifold would work. Making an adaptor shouldn't be rocket surgery. I was just pondering the stock flow meters flow limits. I searched without any hits.

Seems to me the issue isn't airflow with a SSD, it'll be fuel distribution. No way you'll get equal amounts of air/fuel to each cylinder.
An EFI intake was designed for dry flow, with the fuel being injected right at the head. It was never designed to distribute fuel equally from the TB location!

But it just looks so logical. To me at least. ![]() Guess I just always likes the lookes of the old cross ram Chrysler products.
