    I put a new ZZ4 in my nova last year, my wallet is still crying, but its a great motor. Very responsive, good torque...it pulls hard, really rips at higher rpm's too. Considering the cost to assemble your own engine with quality parts, the ZZ4 is actually not a bad deal. I considered the ramjet too, but cost was prohibitive. Besides, Im more of a carb guy...I always gotta have something to tinker with.

    ....Pablo, At www.sdpc2000 a 350 HP/400 TQ 350 Ram-jet is almost $5000 & a 450 HP/550 TQ 502 Big Block is $5800 {no carb or ignition though} {part #12568778}. A 150 more Ft. Lb's of TQ for a grand more??? Why not put in a big block. Lots of room for one in a 70 Chevelle ,,,,,, Plus it's got a steel crank for when 550 TQ isn't enough & you want to add a blower! ;0 Bill
