I remember when you told me there was a $10k budget for the build and the car had two seats. As I remember it was a 6.0 iron truck block, etc.

I think that block in the top picture is my old 346 block.

It's interesting that Shawn has been involved in two of the longest/biggest threads on this forum.

Phil, are you going to be running a single set of injectors? I also saw you posting in the Atomizer injector thread on the bullet - going to give those a shot?

Nick,
Knowing John its just the angle of the pic. This intake is going elsewhere but its a Mozez start....

Fenton,
Were staying with 16 injectors. We're sticking with the precision injectors at this point.

Any particular reason or are you just using what you have?

I have not seen concrete information that the new injectors are better than whats currently available for the 220# injectors. Just because the spray pattern is different doesn't mean its better.

I was bored this morning so I threw in a mockup motor into the mustang to measure the amount of room we have available. Also decided to weight the blocks....

LSx block with main girldle 250.1#
LS1 aluminum block 98.4#
RHS told me the shipping weight on a tall deck was 125#
