We're going to throw the LSx back together, mock it up on the engine dyno, make 50 pulls @ 2000+hp, tear it down. If we can get it to live we'll throw it back in the Mustang, if not we'll part it out and build a 550+ BBC. My old gears were 3.50s new ones are alittle bigger.
How are the stang guys, that run 7.5, doing with their Ford engines? How different are those from LSX issues?

you'll splinter that standard gear pretty quick... i'd keep looking while the car is running...
if you can find 2-3 other guys that need want the same gear you can have them custom made but you have to order a minimum of like 30 sets... just a thought...

I've got F-n 200 on the brain. We may need to switch turbos to take advantage of the new motor. 114mm should do the trick.

Does 114mm limit you on where you can run? Or is it generally just a single turbo rule of any size?

BS3 cab run 2 sets of injectors, I can't imagine that 2 sets of 160 lb'ers wouldn't be enough if ya wanted to run alky.
I remember wormy having to adda 2nd set to their car because with the 114 mm they put on they actually ran out of fuel with the 160 lb'ers

Not sure what it was he was doing, I just remember seeing the intake set up with a 2nd set of injectors on it, and I remember they were going to 2 fuel pumps instead of one, not sure if it was 2 seperate fuel systems or what, I didn't pay that close attenion, I'm so far away from needing anything like that it's a whole different realm then what I'm doing. I just remember reading it and thinking woah, how the hell can a set of 160's not be enough if you're still running race gas.... then I checked one of those injector calculator websites and figured he was trying to get enough fuel system for about 3000 hp.
**** I hope someday I can say I'm making 1/3 of that LOL
