Default Stand alone systems

Any body know where to buy a stand alone system for a C5 corvette? I found one that Nitro Dave is selling, but was wondering if anyone else knew of a kit that wasnt as expensive.

Any stand alone fuel system that is designed as a kit, is going to be expensive. Whoever that has put the kit together knows that all the pieces will work together. Getting all the parts yourself is cheaper, but you might very well have to R&D things and that could end up costing more than what a pre-make kit would cost.

Yeah, I noticed that it is cheaper to buy it piece by piece. I think it came out to about $500 and the kit I was looking at was around $810. Thats why I am looking to see if anyone knows of any other stand alone systems that are cheaper.

I bought my Nitro Dave kit used and just lucked into it. Otherwise it sounds like it's time to get creative.
