MA Old School Vortec upgrade

[grendel]

Ramjet 350 intake, throttle body and fuel rails.

Bought this to go on a motor that ended up with a carb.

Its been sitting and could use some polish. Never been run, still has the factory plugs in it.

625.00 + the ride. Includes the throttle body, injector rails. sensors, stand alone harness and ECM ready for a tune.

It's a good upgrade for someone with an old school distributor style Vortec.

No harness, injectors, or ECM?

Is this supposed to work with factory vortec injectors and ECU? I guess that's why you listed it a Vortec upgrade. Otherwise it would be a nice intake for anybody swapping from older heads to Vortec heads.

Correct, although I did find a harness and ECM I could optionally add.

It's Vortec intake pattern. I'd suggest matching your injectors to cam and other requirements.

It does use the 97/8 Vortec distributor and ecm well.

I sourced a harness and ECM for this.

What injectors does it use?

The little poppet valve deals?

The RamJet 350 kit uses 17124248 injectors.

These:

That said, I'd match your injectors to your cam/head profiles.

This is what a 1997 Vortec uses.

I am glad we covered this. This intake uses a "normal" style injector found in GM's, Fords, Jeeps and a boat load of other cars.

Thus it's upgrade potential to get rid of the crappy two piece intake with the "spider" delivery mechanism that leaks all over the place.

 

[82355]

Yeah, you said in a different post that it used 1997/1998 Vortec injectors. I was confused as to how it could do so.

Sorry about that, I got crossed up.

 

[grendel]

Would like this gone.

Still have this? wondering what else I would need to convert my carb/distributor set up.

Sorry, I didn't get a response email to this. Yes, I still have it.

Haha no worries. Do you know what else I would need to convert my carb/distributor set-up??

Injectors and a computer controlled distributor, I think. Be sure the vortec intake matches the heads, may need to hog out holes. I am not a pro at this. Everything I own is LS or new LT based.
