I wanted to flip the pump upside down but couldn't find any info on running them inverted. As well is there much info out there about flow rates and loss of flow with 90's? I can't get my fuel regulator below 7. Which is a tad high but I have no control below it. I ran 3/8 aluminum line which should be fine according to instructions. -6 lines and elbow for 24" under the hood. I was tossing around the idea of going to -8 for the return to 3/8 line and see if that helped return flow?

if you need a hood I have the mold to build a 4" cowl. Either bolt on or pin on. Fiberglass or Carbon. Depends on your budget

Nice S10 build. I'm in the beginning stages on my '95 S10/Noma. My plan is for a 5.3L, powerglide, and a 150 shot of nitrous.

Hell, don't think they are short enough, the explorer 8.8 is probably allot closer. Stronger as well.

Cool build. If I did not build a fox body car I would have built a S-10. I still want to some day.

If money allowed I would put a cut down 9" in it. And back half the frame.

I found a bolt in 9" kit in the jegs catalog for 900 minus the centre section. But didn't seem that bad to me

I have a 8.5 blazer rear to go in my vega. It has 30 splin axles, got a posi diff. from a caprice. They say the 8.5 only comes with 4.3 and 5 speed.
