Nice, who makes that drive mandrel and vacuum pump??? I was thinking of just making my own drive mandrel because most are pretty pricey.

Two fuel rails must mean ALOT of power! Very nice looking setup!

Jones made the mandrel drive, Star Machine made the Vacuum pump, i made the brackets.

Those arent fuel rails, new prototype nitrous system.

I wanted HTD, but since the Star and aeromotive pump already had Gilmer i couldn't justify the added cost to replace. if i start having problems i'll swap them out to HTD.

The round stock for the fuel pump is almost completely hollow just enough material to thread in the studs.

Smart choice, I would have done the same. Jones does not give anything away, that's for sure.
My vac & dry sump pump don't come with pulley. Easy choice.
