I saw one too many braided lines coming down from the engine for a 77 and also what looks to be an EFI fuel filter with a Street & Performance bracket.
I’ve been installing (reinstalling) the EFI fuel system for my 77 and that shot of Ken’s truck above looks all too familiar.

Hey Ken,

Just so your aware of this a frind of mine just bought a '51 Ford F1 thats got the RamJet 350 in it and this is also the reason the previous owner sold it.

He can only drive it about 40 minuites and it will just shut down after about a 15 min. rest it will fire up and only go another 40 min's. and some times less.

The previous owner had a chevrolet dealership look at it cuz it's under a factory warantee and they couldn't figure it out every sensor and component thats got anything to do with the EFI system has been changed in it including the ECM and it still does this.

My friend the current owner has also had a rod shop that does alot of FI work look at it and they changed a bunch of things and checked all the normal stuff and they couldn't figure it out.

He bought the truck about 200 miles north of where we live and it took him 8 hours to get it home and it should of only taken about 2.5 hrs.

Any way i hope you dont have this kind of problem with the one you have but only time will tell.

Im not shure if this is a common problem that chevrolet is having with the RamJet 350 or if this is just an isolated problem engine that he has.

He said he is going to pull it and sell it and get something different.
