What was the Previous Owner Thinking?!?!?!

[cam.man67]

Whoa! I mean, I've often wondered that about my black spraybombed interior, an intake manifold with some interesting throttle linkage, but nothing as serious as that!

wait did you say a shop did this?! my god what kinda workers do they allow these days! though a hole in the bed for a fuel cell though weird i don't think is bad so long as you never haul anything and need to fill up.... and isn't the ramjet just a plug and go system i mean thats based off a 60-70's tech for the corvette right?

Yeah, the hole in the bed is just dumb and lazy. It's not like there aren't cleaner ways to install a cell and a gas cap system on the cheap.

Yeah, the "modern" RamJet crate was supposed to be plug and play; bolt it up, 1 fuel, 1 fuel return, 12v power, throttle cable and radiator hoses. About as simple a setup for FI that you can get.

if the previous owner didnt sell you the truck you'd have nothing to say

Some people think ,with a cutting torch you can fix any thing. That get in your way.

[Spoof]

They put a carb on a Ramjet? WTF! The RJ IS plug and play but I still can't figure out how to wire up my tach without killing the engine. Soon tho.
And why didn't the RJ oil pan fit?

[Flint70step]

Oh yeah.....that looks safe.......This is a perfect example of ask some one else before cutting!Is this a good idea?
