one time i spent the hole day on the dyno with a l28 with 45dcoe and i try ed every combo of ram tubes to see wot would happen i was very surprised to find very little improvement. in the end i went with the long ones as it had a bit more at 3500 -4500 but it was very marginal only 4 or 5 hp between all of them . air cleaners were more important as i found some losing up to 15hp over others. also efi hardwear no there stuff they can tell you wot you need length wise
