Fuel system,

Wiring......... I am going to use www.Speartch.com

That spectra tank looks like a damn good option... Wiring i went with a techrods harness. The guy up there Jeff? is pretty cool but if u go that route be sure to save yourseflf a little bit of a headache an get the vss and fan options with it. You can esily get it done for 2000 if your not going to take the motor apart at all and do your own labor however you can cause your self a few headaches if u dont replace seals gaskets oil pump and timing chanin while its out (600 bucks) and within that budget you can pick up some of those nice edelbrock longtubes from summit p/n 65073 (600 bucks) just my 2 cents

ok so i found the cell im going to use since my tank is trashed. now my question is
do i run a line frome the cell to the fuel pump to the fpr to the filter to the fuel rail.
then run a return from the fuel rail to the cell? or if i use the corvette fpr do i still have a return line

It depends on if you have a "returness fuelrail" If you only have one fuel line going to it, you use 3/8" line from tank/cell to FPR with this fitting http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640853/ The other line on that side of the FPR is for a 5/16 returnhttp://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640863/ to the tank/cell. The sole female quick connect on the FRP gets this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640940/
then on your fuelrail..... you use this fitting again http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640853/
I plan on using this twist-tie hose http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-220785-B/ with Summit twist-tite fittings http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-220701-B/
Hope this helps some.
