I don't know if I am allowed to post a link, but check out www.flowtechinduction.com. His name is Ed Curtis. Shoot him an email. I ran a set of his LSX gen 3 springs on my TF heads. Think they were like $240 with springs, retainers, cups, and locks. Sweet micro polished springs. Of course while you're there you might as well get him to grind you a custom cam, it's only $325 I believe.

Why not do the fuel pumps your self? I just got my turbo 4.8 fired off last night after my buddy found the wire issue that was preventing it from running. Are you still going to run that big 1.34A/R? If I want to see how it spools.

Well i got quite the update for you guys...
still needs alot of work but its getting there. im just having some problems with wiring...
Heres my first hotside ever... i dont think its to bad... had to patch two places cause i kept poping holes in the welds. any suggestions on how to clean out the inside?
kind of out of order but heres my midwest kmember and front coilovers.
And my little trap door for my fuel pump
And heres how she sits now... minus the turbo which is gonna be gone for something that fits that space a little better haha
ohhh and i did pick these up locally the other day, well my dad did since im in warrensburg mo for college.
Ill be home in two weeks for thanksgiving break and then a month for christmas time. during that time i hope to figure out my wiring issues and get alottttt done! i wanna have this running by early next year. just finding the funds is a problem. im about out of money from my two job summer.

Well i came back from college this week and dug into it again. i got all the accessories tightened down and intake also tightened down. got my new drag pack bolted on to see how they look.
i also finished up some wiring, got my new s475 from IRT turbo this week. wwas also able to finish my cold side. now i just need to find some 5 in tubing for exhuast! and put in the transmission. i also need heavier springs in the front will all this weight with the iron block and turbo and all.
