Nice build. I'm going to be following this one. I only did the bottle for one season and I was tried of getting the mother filled all the time....
I have all kinds of places in my mind. I have not got that far yet though. I was very tired of filling bottles too! Spent 2k last year filling bottles.

Right on man I'd do the same. Tell me what filter rod you used on the manifolds and you TIG welded it right?

Awesome build man. Question, did you relocate all of your fuses boxes? If so can you tell me where you put them? It looks real clean.

This setup loos real close to mine. I just love how clean your engine bay looks.

I also have the dual a1000 setup. You will like it. Are you using a boost switch for the second pump? and did you find a spot to put them?
