What are those injectors worth? what would a 7.0 be approximately at a quarter mile? Also, your hood, is it fiberglass and if so how hot does it get with the exhaust going up? do you have a heat reflector on the bottom side of the hood?

injectors worth..the 42 lb ls3 used to sell for 100 on ebay for a take out set, the price has gone up recently...the Zl1's I have now not sure what they cost.

7.0 1/8th mile should be good for 10.9's in the 1/4 mile. Hood is fiberglass...I placed a section of 1/8" aluminum diamond plate right above the hot pipes, I used high temp rtv to glue it on and left about a 1/4" air gap. hood hasn't warped yet....
