Re: installing a ram jet in place of 3.1 v6 what are some things I should know?

this should be made a sticky or something... the 700r4 on a six is weaker than the v8 and has a different bellhousing. You could techinically swap bellhousing but the v8 will eat the sixer 700r4 to bits. Other than that you need some suspesion work and exhaust work and your tach wont be accurate. Then the 10 bolt rear you have is probably an open differential so unless you want crappy gearing and want to do one wheel wonders all the time you should change that too. Thats all I can think of. Others will chime in eventually. Good luck! Ramjets are the shizzy.
