BBC tri-Quad / 12 pack tunnel ram?

While Cruising the swap meet this weekend I saw for the first time ever a tunnel ram set-up for a BBC with not 2, but 3 quads on top?

Damn, how much motor would have to have to require that much feeding?

Anyone ever seen this before. If nothing else it sure would look impressive sticking out of a hood!

Probably uses itty bitty 4 barrels. Like 3 450s or something like that. Tuning them would make me want to jump in front of a bus.

I saw that once. Looks ok, but I think a 6x2 would look cooler, and would be equally useless lol

that does not sound like a fun thing to tune.
i love the look of the 6 stromy intakes 6pack set ups are my second favorite.

Looked like 3 carter carbs, 100% not Holleys, and not mech. but vacuum. I would guess Wildbill is right on the CFM, no monster sitting on top.

When I had the stock 6 pack on the challenger is wasn't too bad, but when I switched to the dual quads intake with Holley 3 barrels carbs it was a major PITA to keep right. Of course there was no way to make the engine run decent down low, but once you got above 4,000rpms the fun began!
