Super Ram (inside)

For those of you who are looking for a Super Ram, well here is the actual F-Body version vs the Corvette style they sell to you now. One little thing though is that you get a parts car along with the Super Ram setup

Looks like it has some kind of ignition control too. Very clean engine bay...but.. no wiper fluid 159,000 miles most likely. Looks like you get slp 2 on the left exhaust too. Cruise control was taken out, and it has aftermarket guages inside. How can you have a super ram and no headers? Looks kind of fishy. The body looks really old compared to the engine.

Did you notice that the pictures were taken with the car running?

Originally two versions of the SuperRam were available from Accel. One version for F-Bodies and one for Corvettes. The Difference is that the F-Body version was not as tall and long as the Corvette version. Accel no longer makes a F-Body/Corvette version of the SuperRam, the current style if you will is the Corvette version, its the one that I have. When I spoke with a technician in Accel's Digital Fuel Injection department he told me they dropped the F-Body version just because they didn't think it was worth the price difference to pay for a foundry to make both styles of the SuperRam.

Okay, this seems a little obvious to me, but if they had to chose between the two, why go with the "taller and longer" version knowing you're going to cause some fitment problems?

It makes more sense that they should have kept the F-body version. I'm sure even the Corvette guys would prefer a little extra space to work with under the hood. Oh well. :rockon:

looks like the previous sale didn't go through...and the mileage has gone down. I was watching to see what it would go for.

I agree...

It would be nice if the SuperRam would tuck into the engine bay really nice like Vincent's does (F-Body version). Okay now who wants to trade a SuperRam for a Holley Stealth Ram?? Just even typing that I can see Don & Kevin L's eyes @ the thought that I want to change more of the setup LOL Actually I am very excited to see how the SuperRam will run with the new cam and with the help of Lon & the "new" hood I might just get a bit more "super" yet
