I was poking around on the net and checked into this site. Here's some history about the Ramchargers, their program, and some great old photos.

I remember seeing someone here that had a picture of a Ramcharger window sticker. Looking for that post.

What's left of the original RamChargers have been showing up at Chryslers at Carlisle the last few years.
A friend of mine cloned one of their cars back in the day.
Oh the stories they could tell.
Great photo. They were a class act. Like the Golden Commando's.
I'm into these guys. It's a newfound passion since I got my 64. I needed a lift. My Mopar Mojo went away. I am into it again.

This here is a great, must have, thoroughly read follow up to the first Ramchargers book above. It's the second edition. I couldn't put it down.
Thanks for the tip. It looks like a good read.

were they pre-Ramcharger ?
I had to look it up S/FX were Supercharged Factory Experimental class. They were basically exhibition cars.

Check out the traction bars. They look like CalTracs. LOL
Those manifolds are crazy. They were going for equal length I bet.
