50-60lbs???? Please enlighten me. All I see are the horns that can;t weigh more than a few lbs. The aluminum cross member is real light.

Not at this point. I really want to run one sideways or backwards. We are gonna have the kit move along a little more before we decide to select an elbow gameplan. Now that the plastic cowl is off it seems there is more room than we anticipated to run a sideways one.

Thanks though. If I decide to run one like yours I'll shoot you a PM.

Got the rest of the fuel goodies in! Fuel lab 1800hp pump, long pre/post filters, upgrading my regulator to the one with -10 ports. Running -10 to the engine bay, with a Y-fitting to (2) -8s to feed the rails. Hopefully Aaron finished welding up my intercooler and can get it to me by next week. Time to get this build rollin!
