I need a definitive answer to the availability of RAM Air on the 1973. I have used the search function and looked everywhere on line I can think of. My early research showed that the RA option was available for the non-mach1 Q codes. But I have also found that no 73 model could get RA. I am looking for documentation prior to buying this car. If you can help I would be very appreciative.

 

Just a quick check - CJ Pony Parts sells the 71-73 Ram Air Hood.

Thanks for the info. The hoods are the same, I belive, and alot of the 71-72 stuff runs over to the 73 in the aftermarket. I need to know if it was a factory offering or dealer option available in 73.
The infoI had was that a Q code could get RA but not if it was a Mach 1, only the standard Mustang.

 

Only the 302 and 351-2v could get the Ram-Air package after '71. The 351-4v could get the hood, but it had the block off plates installed and had a regular air cleaner.

 

Like they said above the ram air in 1973 was a factory option.

 

I have it on my 72 conv. with the marti report.

There is a company you could check with for more info. http://www.fordramair.com/
Check them out, They sell: Shakers, Ram Air & Rim blow complete factory repro bolt-onunits.
They have 71-73complete mustang Ram Airkits starting at $695.00

I had to order a replacement air cleaner from them, they had good serivce and quick shipping..

 

Thanks for the inof guys. This was a car thatI was looking at buying and know it lives in my garage. wish me luck.
