Has anyone ever built a twin rail tube chassis Promod 1st generation Ram or Ramcharger?

Also who makes the best water jacketed Big Block Block now days?

Aluminum or iron?
I have a new Koleno high nickel iron block and a new KB aluminum block, both are 4.500 bore sizes.
I will use the Koleno block for my next all out build (probably Pro Charged shooting for 4000 HP on either E85, straight Ethanol or Methanol with B1-MC heads) for my 1965 Dart top sportsman build up luck

I was thinking aluminum. I wasn't sure if KB was still making blocks.

Also looking for pictures of any promod Gen 1 rams. I've always had a soft spot for them as they are what I learned to drive in.

What's the rest of the combo on that truck? How's it run?

What's the final weight at?

Here is Bob Patterson's OG Ram Charger. Not a first Gen, but still BADASS !!! I think it was built by Bickel back in the Day.

Rich and Joe Sarmento from Northern Illinois ran this one back in the late 80’s.
Not sure when the B-1 stuff first came out, but I think they worked closely with Koffel to help develop them.
