My brother in-law who grew up in Chicago land had a buddy who bought new 64 Dodge 330 from Mr. Norm. It was billed as a "street ram". It was a 4 speed, sure grip and was a pretty potent street bruiser. Does anyone know what engine comprised the "street ram"?
The Street Ram was a regular production option, it was a 365 horse 426 Wedge with 10.5-1 compression, a single AFB, a decent hydraulic cam. The Max Wedges were 12.5-1, heads had bigger ports and valves with no heat cross over, solid cam and one AFB or two on the cross ram manifold. I don’t remember for sure but Norm might have sold the hi-perf cars dyno-tuned right off the showroom floor.
The best you could get in 64 was a 426 max wedge with two fours. Potent street set up and pretty rare today. Most were gobbled up by racers.
the max wedge was not sold as a street car. the 64mw had two compression offerings. neither one was streetable. they were race cars. the street version was as described by fordors. brake lines; inner fender sheet metal and wiring can tip you off to a max wedge.
We used to call the regular 426 single 4 barrel cars a "Street Wedge". Never knew if there was a specific or correct term for them beyond that.
I'm definitely not sure but I bet you can email Mr. Norm he's still active in the Mopar community even man's his own booth at Chryslers @ Carlisle every year....... Hopefully there will be one this year this shit is gettin crazy now.
