With that fuel system I would think his plans are FAR from stock..

BTW how much did all the aeromotive stuff cost you? I am looking for a budget fuel system that will handle around 600whp but I dont think aeromotive is the place to look.

nice job, looks like there is a fair bit of room in the rexys bay. 1 question- where is the the crossmember, steering shaft etc? From the pics, it looks like u have just run a hoop from rail to rail and stuck some mounts on there to suit?

Default *update*

the air ride is on and working, just need to wire up the switches, and clamp down the hoses. fuel system is almost done, waiting on injectors and fuel line.
spec stage 3 clutch kit on the way, MS4 Cam and PRC dual spring kit also needed. heads come off this week for porting and polishing. all new gaskets next week, and ARP rod bolts going in also.should be pulling motor/trans in about two weeks for all new tranny ****, and to spray the engine bay. steering rack will require a trip to jegs to finish. radiator hoses and water pump are final motor items. clutch master cylinder barely made it in

Did you end up using the cobra rear diff cover?
Have you seen the explorer diff cover?

I can trade you mine if you think it will work better.
I can't find anyone selling one.
