You might want to try ebay that is the only way you will be able to find one.

Good luck...the molds were destroyed in a fire so unless someone is parting out their firehawk , you may be looking for quite some time.

Why dont you look into miniram or superram, the performance would probably be the same?

"Why dont you look into miniram or superram, the performance would probably be the same? "

Or likely it would be better. And much cheaper assuming you could EVER get a T-ram. Later.

For get the T-Ram, get the S-Ram only 1 lette off.......and it kind of looks the same(when compared to M-Ram)

The MR is a more all out racing intake while the SR is a great Streetable MPFI intake.....If I was you I would get the SR......oh wait...we now also have that option for around $400...LT-1 intakes.....buy one, send it out to get modded, get it back, and do just a little fab and bingo, a MR for 1/3 the price..... ($400 vs over $1200, I hope TPIS sees this and drops the prices....theya re just out in NeverNever Land)

I have "come across" 3 of them in the last year and a half...one guy wanted $2000, the other guy backed out and the other one was in an auction on Ebay in a total EFI pckage that the guy ended early b/c somebody made him an offer he said he couldnt refuse...so what I am saying is "good F'ing luck" b/c I have been looking regiously for almost 2 yar and still dont have one.

I bought Everything except the MSD Stuff on Ebay for under 1500 in the past 6 months. If you look often you'll be able to find a SuperRam. Here's a hint: search for Super Ram, SuperRam, TPI, Lingenfelter ect.. the Ebay search will only find the product if you type in what the person selling it, calls it in their description. I've seen 3 or 4 of the intake manifolds in the past few months, and I've seen 1 or 2 of the Plenum and Runner Set.

im pretty sure the T-Ram gets on its knees and holds the super and mini rams belt buckle when u consider the factors like:
Price, availabity, options, performance, SIZE (that thing is the size of a blower!) ETC!!!! u should lose your T-Ram crap wanna spend a $hit load of money on an intake get a LS1 intake to work!

A LS1 intake will never work. LS1 blocks are completely different. It would never work.

Sure.. LOL

The intake ports are evenly spaced, like a Ford.. so you have

o o o o (LS1)

compared to:

oo oo (SBC)

Good luck.

There's a big difference between "it won't work" and "It's not feasible". I'm sure someone could get the thing to work with a ton of modding. But is it worth the time, effort, and money? Probably not. But you can't say its impossible.

Everyone knows that the MR is hardly streetable compared to the SR, and you lose mucho torque.
