RamJet 350 Options - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

XSV Performance · 04-05-2008, 01:43 PM

Dont know exactly what section this thread would really belong in but a friend of mine with an 89 IROC-Z was thinking of putting a RamJet 350 into his car to replace the tired 5.7 TPI. But he is worried about the engines compatibility with other parts such as: Stage 2 700R4 Transmission he got, a nitrous kit if he decided to get one, and he was also looking into the Procharger for the 88-92 TPI cars but would the procharger fit the RamJet 350? Thats all I can remember he wanted me to ask for now, thanks ahead of time for the help

Transmission not a problem.

Nitrous or Procharger - I believe the Ram Jet has hypereutectic pistons - not recommended for power adder applications.

The other problem with the Procharger is the Ram Jet computer - not programmable. Although Arizona Speed & Marine (I believe it is) has worked programming that system for upgrades to the engine.

procharger should fit as long as the intake sits generally in the same area as stock TPI system does. I dont know about the programming thing, i was curious how they tuned that car but it may be possible to adapt TPI stuff to it and tune using the 89 ECM

That has been done by a few members, actually.
