Superram Lookin Good!

Alright heres my superram that i re-glass blasted and painted. It used to be a darker red but i decided to change the color and to paint black stripes on the lid this time. I just cant decide on what i should do with the throttle body, red, black or just aluminum.

My engine is all black (waiting to be installed), valve covers are black with red lettering, pulleys are black, accy brackets are aluminum, and my car is red.

Man thats beutiful I wish I had one, then again I dont even have a big enough engine to put it on but I think weather u leave it aluminum our paint it black I would paint all the bolts heads that stick out of the throttle body red just to accent the super ram.

I went a little overboard with the red but i think it turned out well. I even polished the throttle plates, now their almost mirror-like.

Very nice work! If the rest of your machine has had that much attention paid
to it, it should be a helluva ride!

Lookin good. A little too much red on the top 1/3 of the engine.. but it'll probably blend well with red inner fenders and firewall since the bottom 1/2 of the engine isn't visable anyway. Nice job. What cam did you end up going with?

I settled with a comp cam 280XFI HR-13 Lift .576 .571 Dur 230 236 Lobe Sep 113. Should be a nice cam for my setup and give a noticable lope.
