SuperRam Prices?
Does anyone know where to get the best deal on a SuperRam?
Now that medical insurance has topped 5G's a year, it looks like a C5 is
gonna have to remain a distant dream.

I have been looking for a Super Ram myself. The best I have found is Exotic Muscle sells the plenum and runners for $625 and you can get a Big Mouth Mainfold from TPIS on their EBay website for $380. So for a little over $1000 you can get the whole setup. Of course, to get the full potential out of the SR you will need new/ported heads, headers and a new chip. Also, others say porting the SR setup is extremely beneficial.

Ebay is a good idea, but plan on them ending up close to top dollar anyway.........they go like hotcakes and everyone wants one. I've seen this time after time. I bid on a plenum & runners kit on Ebay, new in box for $600. The Exotic Muscle route isn't a bad way to go.

I know alot of people have had good experiences with
Exotic Muscle, but I have not.
A while back, I checked their website and decided to
buy the "Stainless, MANDREL BENT front Y for my Vette.
When it arrived, it was NOT stainless, and it was certainly NOT
a MANDREL bent piece. They did, however charge me for the
part ordered. When I called, the guy on the line told me he was
the owner and if I wanted to get the Stainless piece, I had to pay
shipping BOTH ways. When I brought up the lack of Mandrel bending
on the pipe, he replied,"Gee, is that still on our website? We haven't had those for a long time."
There's NO way I'd expect him to honor a listed price.
As far as I'm concerned, Exotic Muscle has closed their doors.

Try calling 'em up and see...
that was my experience anyway...their web site could use a lot of improving. Pictures and descriptions could be better, IMHO.
