Today was the day! We stopped for the day because the car is simply out of fuel at this point.

765/56x

More to come once we beef up the fuel system

Yep 6466 still. Final weight will come when th fuel system comes in. The plan is for the car to be at 800+ when it's all said and done. Emerys dyno is a *** kicker lol.

The car was spinning on the dyno as well today which was pretty awesome lol

I just had a Buschur double pumper with fic 2150s and a Buschur fuel rail, stock regulator and stock lines. Going to step it up to a secondary 450 or possibly 2 450 pumps with a -8 feed, aeromotive rail and Weldon regulator

I was impressed how car th stock lines and such can go on these cars.

if you do a 255/450 or twin 450s drill out your siphon. also if you choose the 255/450 i would run the 450 as a primary and the 255 as the second. i would guess once the second pump kicks on it would be less pressure shock on the FPR to correct. if that makes sense. i would also upgrade the lines to 8/6. i know stock has proven its self but for what your going for there are more benefits to 8/6 then leaving it stock.

I'm going with the 8 feed/6 return setup for sure. The pump setup is in emerys hands, whatever he decides on is what I'll end up doing lol. But it'll be either two 450s or a 255 and 450 setup

Saw on the video on FB of this beast squatting on the dyno, she's hungry! What rear springs are on the car?
