Default SUPER-RAM HELP

Installed the Super Ram in my 391 stroker vette and it runs like crap the little time that it stays on. First it seemed to be leaking from the 9th injecter so I pluged it .It still runs the same.Seems to be running rich but don't know what else it could be :confused: :mad Any feedback will be appreciated

I don't understand what you did on the 9th injector, can you explain ?

My 383 SR motor with 24lb injectors requires very little fuel pressure, and it too will run rich, thus I have the fp down around 40-42 psi in summer air.

As another note, tinker with the TPS voltage and find a sweet spot, if mine is off just a little bit it will run very poorly at part throttle, if its off quite a bit, it will also run poorly at wot. Put timing back to the factory 6 deg initial advance and work yourself up from their.

What other modifications, etc... do you have ?

hope this helps

Basically the 9th injecter was eliminated. I bought a kit that blocks the back of the fuel rail and piece of metal that blocks the hole in the runners.350,30 over block,3.83crank Cam 221/236 465/485 w/1.5 roller rockers,fully ported stock iron heads,1 3/4 headers 3 inch exhaust w/flowmasters no cats,vigilate2600stall msd
