No Hood Clearance Issues!

Which means, There are no problems putting it under a stock hood.

Which means, yes you can put one on and it will fit......Under the hood.

But, does it fit under the stock hood? I know you have to make that big indent in the radiator, but I really don't want to have to mod the hood or the firewall.

I think I can deal with the steering changes.

Big indent in the radiator?? :confused:

The superram system drops right on with no clearance issues on the hood, firewall, radiator, anywhere.

Hardest part is probably the frame extention changes, but that is best for another post. Good thing the manatory change to a Ford 9" rear will take the suspension compression from the chassis change.

That's the easy part. The hard part is shifter relocation ;)

Did you buy the gull-wing door kit to clear the runners?

I used the traffic cones & Epoxy, but they came out uneven and I don't like the color? Thinking of starting a poll.

after seeing a super ram in person....i just hope you guys don't work on your engine a lot, there's NO room. it's even slightly worse than a TPI {which i still have} just for as much as these things cost anymore...i'm just suprised more people haven't bought a miniram, they are so incredibly simple..
