Dennis, Looks like as much fun as a bed full of Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. You did a great job. You mentioned earlier that the ram jet didn't have as much top end power as your 502, 3 x 2 set up. The throtle body on the ram jet is on the small side(same size as a 350 cu") for an engine that size. If you went to a larger throtle body it would more than cure the problem. I have a warmed over 502 in my 66 coupe with a 950cfm Holley HP and it still pulls .75 " of vaccuum @ wot so that 502 can move some air. Good luck and again you have a KILLER car. John

Just got done doing some tuning to the car, upped the idle, added some timing, a little fuel pressure, and found out the main problem was a bad TPS sensor. Swapped it out and OMG its running great. Will try and take some more video this afternoon and post it with less music volume. I am just about ready to send it home...

Could not do it without cutting the Z-bar, block has no room for the ball stud or a nut to mount it with. Made my own bracket and cut down the Z-bar.
