As far as the actual cast iron pieces.
Just because your block code sucks - it doesn't limit its power .
You can put a sticker over it.

Ram3 had special carbs and distributors that you don't want to know the going prices.
But ordinary pieces can be tuned to work just as well.
Not much cam involved with Ram3 engines , anything aftermarket is usually an upgrade.
They had about .410 - .420 lift
Well I just want the car to be as close as I can make it. I would never try to make it what it is not and that is original. This has made me feel that the car can be as close as possible for myself. As far as the distributor I installed an electronic one to make it more user friendly. Carb wise I think the one I have is off a 455. I am just building a tribute Judge GTO. There only original once and this one is not and I am ok with that. I just want it to be saved and be a good tribute. I bought a complete RAIII kit for the hood and air cleaner. I personally was ok with the engine .I paid 400.00 for it. But found it very interesting to learn about what it was and where it came from. And I do thank everyone for their effort in helping me. Now if you will just help me find a 67 GTO LMAO!
