Looks like a nice setup. Any reason why this wouldn't work on a F-body?

The fuel lines are way overcomplication...Remeber the acronym. K.I.S.S.

Keep it simple stupid. The Ts hurt fuel flow more then a Y does. Use the main feed to split off a into a Y. From the Y feed both front rails the lines from the back of the rail run into each side of the regulator and use the bottom of the regulator to dump it back as a return. Much neater.

Looks awesome! Couple of questions for you:

1. What size pulley on the blower?

2. How is the intake tube attached to the blower?

That belt looks like a 10 rib set up. Did you convert to a manual rack as I see no power streering pump?

That looks really nice. There's a few things I would have done differently, but I like the clean and symetric look.

2.75 blower pulley and 8" crank pulley, how much boost are you planning on making? Also, what size motor do you have in there? It looks like you might be the fastest GTO in the nation!
