Ram-Jet 502

Has anyone supercharged or turbocharged a Ram-Jet 502 motor yet? Just wondering how they would hold up under boost and how well that fuel injection worked.

I think the 502 crate motor would be bad *** on boost, add the ramjet intake and I bet it would be reaaaaally nice

One of the magazines did a nice centrifugal blown 454 not too long ago. It made phenomnal horespower. Something around 900. Think it was Hot Rod or Super Chevy.

The 502 from what I understand has the same compression ratio as the 454, just a larger displacement so it should react well to boost also.
