Anyway, I'm excited to see your car get some miles put on it soon. I hear the last 10% of finishing a job like this is the most tedious part.

Like I said in post #703 https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com...postcount=703:
"If you decide to do a carb there is no reason to get rid of the EFI fuel tank. Just install a universal bypass regulator like the Aeromotive 13301 or Trickflow TFS-27001 (they are the same regulator but Trickflow saves you about $50) and run the high pressure pump with a carb. This will solve any potential fuel starvation issues assuming you use the right size fuel line. I did this with my Q-Jet prior to going with the Sniper.

The Aeromotive 13301 is $196 and the Trick Flow is $142, fwiw
All that being said - looking forward to seeing video of the first drive!!!
