Chevy 383 Stroker Swap
We put the SuperRam on before dropping the engine in the car. Mistake. It repaid us by crushing the wiper-motor housing on the firewall. Another blunder was not running a heavy bead of silicone across the back of the lifter valley where the block, heads, and manifold meet and around each intake port. The result was a nasty oil leak behind the distributor and a healthy vacuum leak. Fixing the leaks took about 8 hours, with two people thrashing. Despite the hassles, the SuperRam was key to the 600 lb-ft of torque at a low-and-slow 3,100 rpm. View Related Article
