stealth ram, 501hp492tq plus
get a copy of the AUGUST CHEVY HIGH PERFORMANCE magazine (it says NITROUS POWER IN BIG YELLOW LETTERS ON THE COVER)
on page 86 starts an article that has a STEALTH RAM that on a 406 chevy that makes 492tq/501hp non-nitrous and 726 tq/670hp with a 175 nitrous kit and the cam is not ideal for the max power production either, they mention that with several changes to make everything match the intended use and with a 300hp shot of nitrous they felt that 785hp.800tq plus was within easy reach but since they never intended to set the test mule engine up for that level of heat and power they did not try it at that time (ring gaps were too tight for possiable heat generated was one reason given) any way you look at this what there saying is that a properly set up steath ram is a big performance boost over a stock TPI system
