Default RamJet manifold?

Does any body have any experience with manifold yet? How does it compare to SuperRam / Tunnel Ram? Will it fit under a C4 hood?

http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/perform...CATID=995.html GMPartsDirect lists the manifold for $380 bare which is a site better than almost a grand spend for upper and lower plenum for the SuperRam. :eek:

I can't stand how the Stang boys have an abundance of cheap FI manifolds to choose from. My other option for better manifold (for a 377 :reddevil ) is to TIG some injector bungs on my Torker II and fab-up an upper plenum to mount the throttle body. Any body got any better ideas?

I don't think the ram jet intake would fit under the hood of a Corvette.

it's only 9 3/4" tall in the front. The TPI unit is what 9.5" tall in the front with some (small) amount of room to spare?

It might fit, but to be sure you'd have to measure I suppose.

:lurk:

The throttle linkage is on the wrong side too!
