Well I got a bigger pump on the motor but the n2o needs it's own pump. That way it can be regulated independently from the motor for pressure adjustment's on the plate to control rich/lean conditions. And there will not always be pressure on the fuel noid. I know it's not much but why have it if it is not needed.

I started mounting a 6" pin on hood. I had to get this to clear the larger intake and the plate. I wanted the 5" hood at first. It slopes back more gently and looks better. The problem is I think it is not much taller were the carb will sit, then my hood. So it still could have hit, so I went with a 6".. It is starting to grow on me.

That's about the best looking hood for a fox body IMO. I ever get another one of those cars that is what I'd go with in a heartbeat. Clearance for the engine is great with that too, no worries about the hood messing with the incoming air for the engine for sure.
Car's coming along nice, I like what you've done with it.
One question, if it's a race car, why not put a 2 or 3 gallon fuel cell in the nose, and ditch the stock tank? That would save ya a good bit of weight and the fuel lines would be a TON shorter... plus with the reduced fuel capacity, if you ever had a the car catch fire, it would be alot less potential fire. (hopefully that never happens, but it's something to think about)

Thanks man.
It has a 12 gallon RCI cell with a sender unit. The car has a working fuel level gauge. I want to be able to street drive it locally to the hang out spots. It has working power windows and locks. And a radio.
I go to the local grocery store and lowes to pick up **** every once in awhile in this car. LOL.
